How can we live in such world and not do anything ...

I have been quite fast on the previous messages but i'll come back on that.
However, I wanted to share a feeling I had today.

Today I have seen the movie "Hotel Rwanda". It's an amazing movie, really strong and sad ...

But i realised that at the end of the year i will be 25.

25 years that i am on this earth, supposed to be civilised, where globalisation is more and more important, World Wars finished ...

But during these 25 years, here is what I have seen happening :

Wars, civil wars and conflicts :
Yougoslavia, Soudan, Liberia, Somalia, Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Rwanda, Israel and Palestine, Pakistan, Iran, Irak, Koweit, Afghanistan, Nepal, Georgia

Bombings :

Paris, London, Madrid, New York, Charm el Cheikh, Delhi ... around 400 every year

On top of that, you can add AIDS in Africa (25.4 million), poverty (2.8 billion people) ...

And from the 53 biggest countries considered to be the most developped in the world, how many of us are really helping others ? How many of us are fighting for something we believe in ?

I have done it by being in AIESEC. I will continue with other organization.
If each one of us was giving just a small part of our life for helping people, everything would be much better ......
