A Tsunami or a Light Drizzle?

I had an interesting thought yesterday... What if I took a stab at trying to create my own nonprofit. I know what you're probably thinking, "He is only 19, what could he possibly be able to accomplish?" Well, I have a wake up call for you. I have friends, they have friends and their friends have friends. All it takes is one drop of water to make a difference. Metaphorically speaking I want to be one of those drops of water that breaks the barrier between unclean and clean water sources. Yes I realize that it will be an incredibly hard task and a task that will take a lot of tenacity. I made it to college, obviously I have some form of tenacity that is built up inside of me. Creating my own nonprofit for this dire need will also require me to not be willing to give up while standing in the face of adversity. I am going to have a lot of doubters and I realize this, but this is something that I am extremely passionate about as well as something that I want to be involved with personally.

I know that in some of my previous posts I discussed a lot about Charity Water. I think this organization is fantastic, but I also believe that aside from donating money to them that I would be able to have an impact on countries like Cambodia, India, or Rwanda.

Doing math has never been my strongest subject, but one math problem that I know I can figure out any day of the week is this one:


I think this is a phenomenal image as well as a true testament to what I have been expressing thus far in my blog as well as what I will continue to use as a life anthem for myself.

A poet has come up with another poem that I believe to be quite fantastic as well as a great idea. The video of the poet reciting the poem is below. In closing, will you also be a raindrop that causes a change in this world thus creating a tsunami, or will I be one of a few that is trying to cause a torrential downpour to occur?

  1. You may be young, but it would be good for you to look into it... even if you don't make a non-profit now, it's always good to learn ----- for the future.
