Take some time to educate yourself and decide if this is something that you want to care about. Don’t assume anything, put yourself in their position and think about whether or not you would want people to help you if you felt/were helpless. I have heard for years and years about the regime in Uganda and the invisible children, I thought that there was nothing that could be done and have basically ignored everything I have heard. But, I didn’t know who Joseph Kony was. Putting a single face on these gravely evil and persisting events makes justice seem more attainable.
This blows my mind. If like 30,000 people gave a fuck that my kid got a mohawk, I can’t imagine how many people would reblog or call the news if she was kidnapped and used as a sex slave. I can’t understand why people aren’t freaking out about this. Why is this is the first time I’m hearing this dude’s name? Please take the time to watch this and do what you can. This shit is not ok.

Dear Scarlet,
Always remember that no matter how pretty you are, everybody is prettier when they smile. Your problems are always smaller than you think. Chin up, Popsicle Face.

"You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful and then you actually talk to them and five minutes later they’re as dull as a brick? Then there’s other people, when you meet them you think, “Not bad. They’re okay.” And then you get to know them and… and their face just sort of becomes them. Like their personality’s written all over it. And they just turn into something so beautiful."

"A mature person is one who is does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all-knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity."
