Lemmings...

So my dear friend Karen recently wrote on her blog about how loathe she is to follow the crowd (check out her blog! http://karen-christina.blogspot.com/). I totally agree with her! She used the term "sheeple", which I love, though I also think of lemmings. So often we are lemmings in so many ways... just look at Twilight, Avatar, Pintrest, Hunger Games, moccasins, and Louis Vuitton. Being a lemming is rarely admirable, but I have a HUGE exception. KONY 2012. Yup. All over the Internet, blowing up youtube. Be a lemming. Seriously. Watch the video and make Joseph Kony the most famous man in the world. The more famous he is, the more people will care and cry out for justice. You watching this video, and sharing this video, and signing the pledge, and above all calling/writing/facebooking/tweeting your leaders and your celebrities will help take him down. The contingent of men and women the United States sent over in 2011, can't remain their without the support of the American people. This force is vital in training and helping the Ugandan military find Kony.

Brad Pitt who? Kim Kardashian who? I want the name on everyone's lips to be Joseph Kony. Here's the link to the youtube video:

C'mon... be a lemming with me. As Margaret Mead said, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
