People Helping People

Happy Saturday!

Somewhere, somehow, a weird thing has happened. We acquired the notion that’s it’s somebody else’s responsibility.

The rich guys, the big companies, the government, the bosses…it’s their job, their responsibility.

What’s “it”? I don’t know. A need to be met, a problem to be solved, a decision to be made. Whatever it is, it’s up to “them.”

I just work here.

They make the policies. They control the resources. They have the power.

And we’re all standing around pointing at each other, because they is us. And as long as we wait for billionaires and governments to solve the problems, and blame them for not doing it, things won’t change. It’ll never change as long as we wait for organizations to help other organizations.

Some folks are tired of waiting. Here’s an eleven-minute video from a guy who did a relatively simple thing on a people-to-people level. He learned some stuff along the way that might help us do what we can, where we are, with what we have.

Have a great weekend.
