On May 15, the blogosphere (or at least a big part of it) united its voice for one ginormous issue, Human Rights. Bloggers from every part of the world wrote about human rights and posted it on the same day, which certainly increased the buzz. We need to take our hats off for them because as easy as it sounds, they had to really put their heads and hearts into it. Thousands probably had to overcome blogger's block to write a good article. And also thanks to Amnesty International for its support.
We bloggers did a fine job, I'd say. Each post is a step toward more exposure, thus more awareness. We must be proud for not just sitting around, dreaming for a better world without any real action. Well, a blog post is just a string of words but no one can say that words aren't important. How many times have the world changed after being shaken up by speeches; how many wars, tears, smiles, joys, and laughter? Were they not words with which nations set themselves free, with which mankind wrote itself a commitment for its own rights?
