		<description>Kim, thanks for the encouragement!  Your blog is a pretty amazing source of ideas on a plethora of positive change, thanks for the link.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;HB, I appreciate the mention, and I agree, the cycle is important to break.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sandra, I have never really thought about it that way, but you&#039;re right... writing, speaking, praying, all of those also help the issues.  I still want to do something hands-on though.</description>

		<description>Jeri,  I believe just writing about these things helps build awareness, so by expressing your concerns you do help make a difference. You don&#039;t necessarily have to formally join large campaigns to make a difference.</description>

		<description>The single mother poverty cycle that you mention is one of the worst problems in our world. If we work together, we can make changes and &quot;give back&quot; to the world. We need to brainstorm and discuss these issues such as at the &lt;a HREF=&quot;http://forums.millionsofmouths.com&quot; REL=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Hunger, Poverty, &amp; Homelessness Forums&lt;/a&gt;. Thanks!</description>

		<description>Hi Jeri, &lt;br/&gt;   Ran across your post browsing and just wanted to drop you a line of encouragement.  I&#039;ve used my blogs for a number of years to keep my resolutions and seek input from others and it&#039; been very rewarding.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;    Not too long ago I wrote an article about &#039;giving back&#039; sorts of resolutions - like yours - and was interested to see others are feeling the same.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;    Good for you, there are so many worthy causes I&#039;m sure you will find one or more to assist, and they will be very glad to have your help.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;    If you&#039;re ever in the neighborhood, drop by my blog to say hi.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Cheers,&lt;br/&gt;Kim&lt;br/&gt;IResolveTo.com</description>
