Live 8 Brings Worldwide Unity

I am sure that by now most of you have hear about the Live 8 concert held yesterday in support of African famine relief. Live 8 was an amazing outpouring from the world that crossed cultural and class lines. The concert was hosted in London by its founder Sir Bob Geldorf, who organized the first concert 20 years ago. In Philadelphia, homegrown superstar Will Smith served as the host, however it is believed that the best response for any of the hosts was that received by Nelson Mandela who hosted in Johannesburg, S.A. In all there were 20 concerts, with one in every G8 countries, as well as in South Africa. Events such as these always amaze me...it amazes me that people across the world can put aside their racial, social, and political differences/agendas in support of a movement that the world can agree is for the "common good". These types of events provide hope...now the music is over and its time for action! For more info on Live 8 (you can view a replay if you like) click here.
