When it comes to peace, how would you describe yourself?

I am a born activist

What do you believe are the 'burning issues' today?

War, Hunger, Poverty, Education, Our Planet, Violence, Inflation, Human Rights, Other

So what is it?

lack of compassion for others AND in many places in the world: the absence of clean water

What must we overcome to achieve peace?

Greed

More

It was difficult to select just one of the above and I was pressed to choose between religion and greed; however, religion has its redeeming elements while greed only needs to take more from where ever and whom ever it can capture. Greed has no limits and can cause suffering on the mass scale that we have today. Dissolving it should be a primary goal of religion. Economic disparities and fear would soon be eradicated with the demise of greed.

Can we change the world?

Definitely

More about me

I am the founder of an NGO that is now 27 years old and we have been designing projects and programs to help feed, cloth, educate, and shelter children and widows in as many countries as we can reach. Advocating and fund raising for this effort has taken over my life and countries where HIV-Aids has ravaged the population is where I always want to be for I feel that my service as an individual will mean so much more. I ask that anyone who visits my profile and our website, please consider assisting us with resources, time, or any other means that will help us move forward. Thank you.
