March 18, 2008ME TO WEMe to we is what wed see If we could already be the change we wish to see In our lives these days By the words that we say About the world that we could make By our passions as they turn into actions (x2) Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To something that embodies generosity Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To one home one family Cuz It doesn’t take a genius to see That things need to change But no one person has the power to rearrange All of the things that be bringin’ us down It’ll take the whole world to make a smile from a frown Every two seconds someone die from starvation Poverty and hunger in every single nation. 40 wars spent one trillion dollars this year We should have fund education this year instead of investing in fear. Ecoside Genocide Homicide Suicide, So many ways for destruction to live its life People get angry and get up with guns when more people died of suicide last year globally than war you know we ain’t havin’ fun. Priorities need to change were not doing enough We ignore a man on the streets Because his luck is rough They say crime rates are jumping through the roofs. The same reasons not to trust everyday on the news. So many types of suffering that human can endure But straight up there’s more than one way to be poor. Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To something that embodies generosity Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To one home one family When you wake up try to find a smile Recognize that were all alive, but only for a while. Look around you, only 2 races to be found. Multiple choice answer to be found, human cruel and human kind. Respect that there is more than one way to live We can be people who take or people who give. Changing the world would be as simple as a hug or holding the door open And not saying you’re done. Saying something positive when negative surrounds. Speak from your heart grow from what you found. A stranger is a friend passing you by If he looks serious pass him a smile, If you’re still unfamiliar, ask him his name. Strangers are extinct if and when they do the same So first we need some visions And we have to set some goals. Like ending hunger by filling every single bowl. And ending poverty as if money grows on trees Lets stop voting war and start voting peace Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To something that embodies generosity Lets move from me to we And change the world from what we see To one home one family This is it one chance we can do it. Learn the dance in the streets By the way we choose to live By doing what we do By the me we give By the we we see Every single body United to one family One race One globe One humanity That’s what they call human kind-ness CUZ LOVE AINT DEAD!!! Joe Opatowski amazing RIP

March 17, 2008WEEK OF SCILENCE!!!When Joe speaks, people listen. Twenty-one year old Joe Opatowski travels across North America speaking to high school students about what life is like in other parts of the world. It’s shocking, and it’s real. Meanwhile two high school seniors in BC vow to stay quiet after they hear Joe speak. He inspired them to really think about their words - as they embark on a week long Silent Vigil in a symbolic stand for the voiceless children around the world. Joe’s life took a dramatic turn – but bottom line – he spoke and people listened. Sometimes that's all it takes.
"now its our turn! we want to take a vow of scilence for a week, music is aloud, watching news is aloud, and for you guys buzznet will be aloud, but im not using cellphones or email, or facebook! i hope i can get as many people to do this with me as possible! for the love of our planet, we need to bring to everyones attention that there are things going wrong in this world! i will stop talking to show the pain and aggriviation that others feel! not just in other countries like africa, but also in our ouwn loving utopia of CANADA. an amazing country but many are stuck not talking, not having their own voice! check out Joe. his speaches were amazing if your with me, speak up and let me know! not only will you be commited to a great cause, but ur name may go in our local paper. i dont ask for money, just support. itll be hard but ill do it! and with support itll get easier! <3 to all... ~amber pahl~"
