  The thing about pursuing justice is that at times the mounting issues of our time can seem overwhelming.

People often find themselves asking, "what can I even do? The issues are so BIG."

It's nice to remind ourselves of the progress we HAVE made,

in a world of negativity being thrown at us all the time.

Yes, there are monstrous issues of our time that demand our attention in order for change to happen in this beautiful world we live in. BUT, there is also time to look back and see how far we've come.

It encourages the heart, and inspires us to keep fighting on until we see the end to the injustices of our time.

What I love most about Bono's TED talk released today,

is that he does just that.

He points us at the amazing facts proving success,

and how far we have come.

And, then he points us to the future, and how we can continue to change lives,

and eventually see these atrocities eradicated.

That is hope, and I love it.

We have come so far, but we have a journey ahead of us as well....

lives are being changed,

and we must fight for more truth, and more justice.

These are exciting times my friend,

carry on in the great fight of love.

"We can't get this done until we really accept that we can get this done."

Bono

peace.love.joy.
