Save The Invisible




There are times when you watch something, hear something, read something, and it immediately takes precedent and opens your eyes like they have never been open before. You immediately stop whatever you are doing and start taking action. You realize that not only the future but the present is on the line.

When you hear about the hell that Joseph Kony is spreading on this earth, you immediately realize your problems are of really no importance in comparison to what is going on. I had always heard of Invisible Children in high school and had heard a little of what was going on in Africa will child soldiers. I wish I would have really payed attention. I know I could only do so much but at least I could have done something. However, this time I am not just going to listen and give my sympathies. I will be damned if this man roams free, abducting young children and forcing them into the hells of prostitution and war. THIS NEEDS TO END NOW!!!

I don't know how we can go on saying we are trying to live good lives and be good people when we just sit idle while children are being killed and being forced to kill every day. We need to speak up and let congress know that we are not a people of just our own interest. If we take pride in proclaiming we are the greatest country in the world, why do we just sit and bicker over jobs and taxes while children, let me repeat, CHILDREN! are being victimized, kidnapped, raped, sold, forced to kill, and killed every single day. It our duty to make sure every child is cared for and protected.

I may just sit with my thoughts on many of the trivial things my privileged life has to offer.

I WILL NOT JUST GIVE MY IDEA ABOUT THIS!

THIS IDEA HAS BEEN AN IDEA FOR TOO LONG!

THIS IDEA NEEDS TO BECOME REALITY!

My voice will not know rest until Joseph Kony is the most famous person in the world, sitting in a prison cell and there are no invisible children.

Save the Invisible, Save the World
