death count of Tsunami victims in Aceh is 173,000 and approximately 250,000 in total amongst people all around the world. watch Hotel Rwanda and you'll learn that rebels of different ideology fight and kill each other 24/7 in the poor 3rd-world states of Africa that no mass-media has coverage of(because it is probably too dangerous for journalists to even be there) and yes millions die every year due to corruption, fighting for power, authority in their land, women get raped, even little innocent children of "different race/beliefs" are being murdered and slaughtered. over 4 million people have died over there in their wars and conquests and the world is pretending not to know anything - The UN are not gonna intervene(after what happened in the vietnam war and black hawk down-somalia). at least now you know abit. yeh, go watch Hotel Rwanda if you want to know more.

do you think really think you're the unlucky one? do you really hate it when you have a bad day so much that you blame your life and take it for granted?
think twice, and reflect upon it.

i ask for your prayers for love-peace-equality in this world someday. but that's not enough, we pray so that our prayers get answered in the way that we discern upon areas where we can help. we can always donate, and start standing up and speaking about such troubles that are happening around in the world to show we care - there's so much and so many you can do if you're willing to, just sacrifice some of your time and think about it. if you are in a band, you can write a song about it .. if you're a cartoonist, you can draw a cartoon to describe the despair and unfairness in this world, and so on.. you never know how your little efforts combined together around the world will make such a huge and drastic difference for those people out there in this world.

let's make a difference, and NOW is the time. this is not a joke. yo, stand up and do something about it.

much love!
paul
