3.15

3.15

Only 3.15 years left to go. On what you may ask? Well that is exactly the problem I feel. 

Here comes a brief history lesson...

In the year 2000, 189 countries from across the world met at the United Nations and set forth an agreement to work towards a set of 8 practical realities for the world and global society by the end of 2015. 


And thus, the Millennium Development Goals were created. 

Whilst it is important to give credit where credit is due, progress having been made towards each of these goals in turn, I feel the urgency and necessary advocacy and action required to see any of these goals come into full fruition by the set period is far from where it needs to be. 

When reading through each of the goals it is easy to feel overwhelmed and wonder why on earth those who created them decided to be so ambitious?

But that is just it, every single one of the goals are PRACTICAL & POSSIBLE! 

In order for their achievement greater stress on what every single one of us can do to contribute needs to be made aware to the greater world wide population and even more than this is for those individuals to make the decision to open their hearts and choose to be a part of creating a world of social and environmental equality and justice.

That choice is yours. 
Those people are you.

Don't ever settle for mediocrity, strive to fulfill your absolute potential and watch yourself change peoples' worlds. 

Peace.x
