Some people do give a damn

Jim,

I agree with a lot of what you have said but there are people in the world who do give a damn or else we would not have people who protest against some of the crap that goes on. Sure some are just protesting for the sake of it but others are there because they really care what happens. At the moment there are a heap of people around the world protesting against going to war.

I would like to say I'm one of those people who get out there and try to change the world for the better but at the moment I'm not. I have my own problems, like figuring out what's going to happen to me next year. I'm still a teenager and I guess there's some hope for the world if other teenagers like myself and my friends realise that all is not well in our world. With environmental problems, war, wealth inquality, terrorism and many other problems it seems like I'm not going to have a future worth looking forward to.

Next year maybe instead of going to Uni, and getting a job like everyone else maybe I should try and make this world worthly of the innocent minds who have to grow up in it. I don't know how but Í'm going to try. I suggest you do to. Try and change some of the things you've complained about and try to do it without resorting to viloence. It's time for people to open their eyes and see what's going on around them but they're not going to unless someone shows them.
