"I’m naive at times, but I’m not that naive." @petepaphides article detailing the amazing will of the people to make things happen: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/sep/12/help-is-coming-how-the-single-for-refugees-came-together
Ha, I'd just read this/listened to it on the Guardian webpage. The power of music. I loved the poem:
No one leaves home unless home is the mouth of a shark you only run for the border when you see the whole city running as well...no one puts their children in a boat unless the water is safer than the land. The full poem is here: http://www.commondreams.org/further/2015/09/04/no-one-leaves-home-unless-home-mouth-shark
@melissapulo words can be very powerful things, especially when it spurs people into action
