How about starting off with your personal effort on fighting child poverty right at your doorstep? Fighting hunger in the less developed regions of this world, which also have some of the highest birth rates, would be a second. How about the fight for opportunities for higher education? Or education, period, since many children in many regions of the world don't get any.
I agree, Abaris.
Those are definitely all things we should try to do. Give to charity, help the people and animals around you in any simple way you can (I have 6 cats, not by choice lol), recycle, conserve water/energy in your home, etc. Leave no one behind, disregard no life.
All very valid points, my friend.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
