Poverty is Declining: Globally

On February 2013 Bono singer from U2 made a presentation about poverty.   He showed in his Ted video the poverty is declining over the years.  How over the years social media has change people all over the world are taking control of the rights for equality.  Bono had presented facts that present poverty which was nice.  I found that poverty is declining around the world.  Children death rates are down to 2.65 million a year.  8 million patients are anti retro-viral drugs for HIV.  Africa's sub-Saharan that had their death rates dropped by 75%.

Social media has proven to be the force that people are using to express their feelings and thoughts.  When I image how social media has over turn governments or a least change there way of ruling I believe it is amazing what words can do.  I believe Abraham Lincoln once said " the pen is mightier than the sword" in this case it would be social media.  The power to change the world around us and connect us from far away lands.  We can hope to be the better generation but, also a responsible one.    Learn from pass miss takes and correct them.

Growing up with the word of God each lesson still rings true.  We can make a differences if we love ourselves and others.  Respect each others belief and come together to make this a better world.  It is our obligation to up hold the Constitution in our country and respect  those from others.
