The Power to Change the World

Is it ironic that we post the most (poet and I didn't even know it! :P) when it's almost our exam week haha?

Anyway, props to Raymond/Bryan for telling me about this video and teaching me something that a textbook never could. (Warning: May make you may smile. A few times. Or ten.)


(NB: This video is only a remake of the original video by The Jubilee Project)

Well, after watching this video, the next course of action was to find out who The Jubilee Project was, naturally. :P If you would like to see some of their videos (their editing skills far surpass both Bella and mine's combined), then click here.

The Jubilee Project is three, young guys who make inspirational videos for a variety of good causes. After reading about how they've helped people world-wide, I was really inspired by how even young people (especially young people) can change the world.

It's only dawned on me recently that we do have the power to help the world.

You may think you're only one individual who's just good at video editing? Or at art? Or at writing? At music? At making people laugh? At sports? Cooking? Fashion? Smiling? At fitting your whole fist in your mouth? Or maybe you think you don't have any talents at all?

What I think is that every one of us have so, so many unique talents - and we shouldn't let anything hold us back from being proud of them! If you think about it, there's no one, super-talented super-human person who is good at all these things. Can you imagine that? Okay, don't really imagine that because that would actually be kinda scary haha.

But it just makes you realise that we don't have to be some super talented person who's good at everything to help the world - if we just join together, we truly can make a difference. =)

I think this is especially relevant after the recent earthquakes, tsunami and radiation threats that have devastated thousands and thousands of people in Japan. They need our help.

And I really, really believe that us, as young people, can be the ones to help them. =)

Always remember, Happiness Equals Bracket =)
