The world will never be complete
Make Poverty History is an absolute must. Lyndon Johnson is the last person who waged a succesful war on poverty and perhaps we would benefit by asking Lady Bird about that campaign. Throughout Johnson's war on poverty I remember us thriving in every sector everywhere in the world. Make Poverty History needs to ask presbyters what they did to eradicate poverty and pestilence in the most affluent times after World War Two. Of course this is my lovemark because the world will never be complete when such inequality exists.

Believing in it
If you have compassion in your soul, then being part of this movement to change the world is the most important thing you will ever do - it's more than just wearing a white band, it is believing in it and spreading the word. I do.
