Think We. Pass it On.


Today is International Me to We Day.

Me to We is a social movement. You can read more about it in the book published by those incredibly over-achieving kids, Marc and Craig Kielburger - the founders of Free the Children. It's about living our lives as socially conscious people, engaged in daily acts of kindness. It's about finding meaning in a material world.

EVERYONE I've met from Free the Children is full of the piss and vinegar of well-intentioned youth. They really believe they're the generation we've been waiting for. You've got to respect that kind of passion. When I was their age, I was watching 7 hours of TV a day.

Anyway, happy Me to We Day. Stop looking at your navel and do something nice for somebody else.

I watched the Kielburger interview this week on The Hour - that one dude is SO full of energy.. almost disturbingly so - the way the veins bulged out of his neck as he talked...
