Tonight's the last day to contribue to Autism Speaks through Six Degrees. You cannot have NOT noticed how Ali Edwards has been fighting for Autism, and her amazing journey at Six Degrees. They just opened for international contributors aswell through PayPal, and seeing her fight made me want to do my share aswell. Weird. Somehow this have touched me, and I feel somewhat emotional thinking of my donation to this cause (I'm such a sissy). I feel good being one of many helpers. Today I'll allow myself to feel good about it. So. What are you waiting for? The cool thing about Six Degrees is that once it ends - about tomorrow very very early for us Europeans (so do your donations now) - Kevin Bacon will do a matching donation to the number one cause. Which atm is Autism Speaks thanks to Ali Edwards.
Need another reason? Found this on Corinnes blog;
First, they came for the Communists, and I didn't speak up, because I wasn't a Communist.
Then, they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up, because I am not Jewish.
Then, they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up, because I am a Protestant.
Then, they came for me, and there was no one left to speak up for me.
It's a wellknown quote/poem which you can read more about here.

Flott sitat, og jammen verdt å tenke på at man ikke alltid kun skal stå på for seg selv og egne saker! Vi har jo litt til overs for andre også ;)
Det er jammen bra å kjempe for noen!
jeg hadde ikke fått med meg dette jeg... men et fint sitat du har funnet ;) Ha en fin påske!
Det sitatet var utrolig fint - og akk så sant..
Ønsker deg ei riktig god påske, ania. Håper dere får flott vær og masse tid til å kose dere sammen. :-)
