I am one person...but one person can do big things.

I am one person, who saw this documentary a few years ago and was touched. That summer, I took my first trip out of the country to a place called Ecuador where I met many people who touched my life. That summer was one of many life-changes, and since I have been unable to ignore the injustice and war going on in the world around me that most people my age never hear about.

Just recently I have been making efforts to get involved with Invisible Children at my university, and I was wondering what I could personally add to the movement when I drew up a list of things I enjoy and am pretty good at. One of these was writing, and I got an idea to just share my thoughts and any information I receive regarding the Invisible Children of Northern Uganda in this blog. Thus, here we are.

If you want to learn more, visit invisiblechildren.com and definitely watch the Rough Cut documentary and the new GO documentary. I guarantee it will change your perspective, and I certainly hope it motivates you to "GO".
