    Everyone has it within themselves to make a possitve mark on the world, not to make a name but to make a statement. It all starts with one voice, one word. There was a lot of good that did come out of the 60s, all of this out of struggling for a good cause and reason.



    Thank you for your response

    I agree with you fully, both in regards to the present occupy (not a movement) movement, vs. the actual movement that you were so priveledged to have been born into.

    When it comes to charitable donations there is an interesting theory that 'giving' enables poverty - meaning unless humans get to a point where they 'seek and get for themselves' then poverty will never end. I think this is a modern day cop-out and an excuse to turn a blind eye to those you speak of; the ones volunteering to help others.

    I think for peace to happen EVERYONE has to feel validated by themselves and others.

    I was born too late to experience the 60's and during the 70's I was just a wee one but if I could have one wish, it would be for something like that to happen again in my lifetime but for it to actually result in Government understanding and support .

    I get called naïve a lot for my ways of seeing the world, so it is nice to see a post with some 'evolved' human perspective.

    The salvation army is a constant help to homeless people and families having problems I love the organization I feel the same way you do about it's hard enough for me to go to work for 6-8hours being a cashier and people ignoring you or no even wanting to look you in the eye getting paid so I can imagine how it would feel doing it for free GOD BLESS THEM!!!
