Wow, first TIGblog :O
The situation in both East Timor and Indonesia at the moment is so sad. To see the pictures of injured people lying on the ground, families sheltering under only a taupaulin from the rain, riots breaking out, buildings and vechiles being set alight, is horrendous to me, and i can't begin to imagine what it must be like. Don't get me wrong, there are still to many countries that live like this every day, yet the reports in the media seem to have died out about these countries. I still think of them, and wounder what is happening, and what I can do to help

Awhile ago, all of this would have made me a lil sad and then i would have forgotten about it by the end of the day. Now as its happening im thinking more about it and woundering what i can do to help (not that i have come up with a lot yet but still), which i think is an improvement. Its thanks to sites like this and others that have inspired this change of thought pattern.

These sites have made realise that there is a lot we can do to change the world, even though im still young. Its a pitty not everyone realises this... the world would be a better place if we could all learn to give more and take less.

Please excuse any spelling mistakes, im not a wiz at spelling :D
