Earn Those Wings: Reach Detroit

Look at this picture. See how gloomy this picture is? Do you see the tragic ruins of a place that once must have held promise? Take a guess as to where this is.

Did you guess Detroit? Well, perhaps or perhaps not. Detroit was named one of the most dangerous cities in the US, filed for bankruptcy and this picture is one of many similar photographs that I could have shown.

This webpage really contains all the information about Detroit and what I am trying to promote, so I won't go into it doubly. But I would just like to say a few things, encouraged donation to revive Detroit, a city badly in need of a revival.

For all of us Americans, Detroit is like our cousin. It's part of the US, therefore, we are connected to it. We see all these gory images about ruins that exist all over the world, but what about the ones that exist where we live. Detroit is not the only city facing crime and poverty, but it's a great place to start. We need to fix these problems. Even for those who don't live in America, this is a serious problem. Sitting here in my nice suburban house is easy. But what about those people who can't do that? What about those people who are held up at gunpoint and it takes the police an hour to address the situation because they're so busy? We have to think about those people! Not everyone who is reading this has the means to donate, but if you do, please think about those people who need your help.

They NEED your help. Help them.

My Theory

Here's my theory, and what the younger brother says seems to have happened. The truth is, the reason that Dzhokhar got involved in planting bombs at the Boston Marathon was because of something that we all do sometime over the course of our lives. He listened to someone he loves. He trusted someone that he loved and looked up to to guide him along the right path. And this is where he was guided. Luckily, if you're reading this, you probably followed the right people. But perhaps you haven't. He looked up to someone because they were the only parental figure he had. My more angel lost his way because he didn't know who to follow. The truth is, this angel made a mistake, just like the rest of us. It is awful to think about what will happen to my poor angel from here. Please let us all pray that he can live...

Earn Your Wings

Hey everyone. Just wanted to let you know that angels aren't just heavenly beings that don't exist here on Earth. Angels aren't just spirits of loved ones that we feel are watching over us. Angels can be anywhere and they can be anyone, including you and me.

That's right. We can be angels. How cool is that? Ever since I learned this, I've made it my life's mission to earn my wings. And the reason I created this blog? You can earn your wings too.

All you have to do is think more about the world around you. How many situations are there when someone could use your help and maybe just a few words of thoughtful advice or characteristics. There are millions of angels out there already. People everyday that do miracles for others. We are all capable of being angels. We are all capable of bringing miracles to others with just a little bit of our time.

Please join me in my quest to create so many angels in this world that there are millions more smiles on people's faces. Please join me in doing so because you want to earn your wings, just like me.
