I joined Think to get my opinions out there and be associated with people who feel the same way I do about current issues affecting our world. If we all get together and speak up, we can change the way the world operates. There are wars, discrimination, hate upon other people, and personally...although I am only fourteen, when/if I have children, I wouldn't want them growing up in such a harsh/unsafe world. When parents can't even let their children out in the front lawn to play without them being safe, something's wrong. We can improve a lot of things...freedom of religion is a human right, and people everywhere should have equal rights. Discrimination, along with poverty, needs to be ended, and substance abuse needs to be stopped. Health should be improved in all countries, because it's also a human right to have access to a suitable health care professional. Evironmental issues needs to be addressed so people can see how our lifestyle is slowly Disintegrating our home planet. If we can get people to let go of their fears, we can change anything we set our minds to.
Together, we can make a difference.
