Silence = Acceptance
Are you still remaining silent?

Indifference is when you walk down the streets, you meet a poor man asking you for money and you pretend to not hear him. What about Africa and Third World?

Indifference when you don't do anything about all the hate around you. If you don't stop the hate, who will?

Indifference is when you are aware of the bad situation about the environment but you don't care.

Tell me why everybody thinks that it's leaders like Martin Luther King who can change the world? There are so many unknown people who did something to make a difference. It's all about a decision.

We keep saying that the opposite of love is hate.The opposite of love is not hate but
I N D I F F E R E N C E.
Why do you think there are so many people dying every minute of hunger? Because of our indifference. We know this is not acceptable. We know we should do something but we won't do anything because we don't really care or because we always expect the others to do something about it. "We will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
- Rev. Martin Luther King Jr

Shocking facts

Half the world -- nearly three billion people -- live on less than two dollars a day.

Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a book or sign their names.

Hate crimes involve a higher level of assaults against persons than crimes generally.
45% to 55% of bias crimes are personal assaults, whereas only 10% of all crimes involve assault.

Students who describe themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgendered are five times more likely to miss school because of feeling unsafe. 28% are forced to drop out.

Racism isn't born folks, it's taught. I have a 2 year old son. And you know what he hates? Naps! End of list!
~ Dennis Leary

“Indifference is the strongest force in the universe. It makes everything it touches meaningless. Love and hate don't stand a chance against it.” - Joan Vinge

Everybody knows how much I love these kind of quotes. Very often, it’s only a few words which can challenge you in a way you can’t imagine. Indifference. What is indifference? Well, one of the definition I’ve found in the dictionary is: “absence of compulsion to or toward one thing or another”. When I read it, it did not tell me much and it is sad in a way cause we don’t really take the time to realize the power of that word. Indifference. What is indifference?

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.

I wish these four last sentences were from me but I’ve read this somewhere and this is so true. Now, every time I’m indifferent towards something, I think about it and how serious this is and I try to change my perceptions. Being a Christian, the bible is something that I really put into practice in my everyday life. And the bible teaches that every time you have the chance to do good, but you don’t do it, you have sinned. I think this is a good way to stop being so indifferent in our life.

Here is my invitation: Let’s make a difference in this indifference world!
