caring
I love people who care about stuff. Gung ho, you know?
I've always been impressed (read: influenced) by people who are vocal, who do, who take something they love and really run with it. Greenies. Lefties. Nutters. My favourites.
Honestly, it's a bit like everything, I don't know how much difference one person can make. But here I am making a bit of noise about it on their behalf, and if that acheives anything, then good.
I have lots of friends who care about stuff, I'm very lucky. One works for Body Shop and brought me the hand cream and luggage tags from this campaign and talked about what they were trying to achieve. (Which is stamping out the trafficking of children.)
Have a look. Please, sign the petition online or in your nearest Body Shop. Buy the hand cream.
And tell me what moves you. For me, the utter vulnerability of children undoes me.

I’m not a Leftie, but I don’t believe I need to be in order to care about my children’s world. 🙂 This group is so empowering… It moves my soul to think of all the good they do, and how it pays itself forward.
