Well, I was thinking about this.
So I asked people today if they saw the show,
and a lot of them did!
I asked what they thought, and most of them were in shock.
They didn't know this was going on.
So, at least a few people have been educated.
Now, If we'll only do something about it.

Just like Bono said, he's not a hero because he's a celebrity but the mothers and sisters and children and brothers who battle day to day to drink any, if clean, water and find shelter over their head and some to know they will die losing this battle knowing there is medicines available but can't afford them. I didn't see any despiration in anyones eyes - just celebration of life, like the memory book and all the singing and dancing.
hmmmmm...bono was so humbled and gracious, it was such a human side - not once did I think about licking his neck or kissing those wonderful lips. I just watched quietly and am, obviously, still trying to catch my breath.
