LOL. Not that I mind if others participate.

I admit that I ...Today you and Kerry are my heroes. I admit that I never change my profile picture out of pure laziness. But I don't believe it helps anything, either, and I think it has considerable potential to trivialize the problem. My belief is, "Want to raise awareness? Then get out there and do something to help. People will ask you what you are doing and why. Then is the time to raise awareness, by explaining your actions, and it will make a stronger and longer lasting impression because the person telling them this is actually doing something."Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077536894458666315.post-561259613017221842010-12-05T14:10:23.919-06:002010-12-05T14:10:23.919-06:00Thank you for you very personal "take" o...Thank you for you very personal "take" on this subject.

We can disagree, and that's fine. But we're a diverse group with diverse experiences, and sharing those experiences and perspectives is good for everyone.<br /><br />I've had a few people unfriend/unfollow me so far today...but I'm okay with it. Those are folks who probably would not have enjoyed my company online anyway.Kerry Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17590443839479686201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077536894458666315.post-14135372579115305272010-12-05T13:04:46.013-06:002010-12-05T13:04:46.013-06:00I agree.

Some didn't even know what it was about, just changed their profile photo because everybody was. a few people started posting links to help sites for child abuse. I never suffered abuse but I know up close and personal so many people that did and see the damage it can do and I don't see any connection to cartoons.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06413795611563683135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8077536894458666315.post-91758496964435425932010-12-05T12:03:06.207-06:002010-12-05T12:03:06.207-06:00Well stated, Thomas.Well stated, Thomas.Susan Petersenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02788283253544225956noreply@blogger.com
