I'm mad as hell and I can't take it anymore!

It has been quite some time since I have written on here.

For a few reasons:
I've been working at LiNK (Liberty in North Korea...www.linkglobal.org) and it requires me to be on the computer all day booking screenings for our fall tour.
I've been way too tired to even try to spill out my thoughts.
My mind has been way too jumbled to even figure out what those thoughts are.

But here I am, recovering from the week, ready to write (type) it out.

The past couple of weeks have been ridiculously busy and eye opening. The feeling alone about being with a bunch of people that have nearly the same heart as mine is overwhelming. It's comforting. It feels like home. We all have this enormous passion to save the world, to stand up for someone that cannot stand for themselves. Its incredible what can happen when you put a bunch of people together that have the same boil in their blood. Its impressive really--the amount of passion, dedication, talent, intelligence (whatever you want to call it) that you can cram into an office.
But...
There's one thing I've definitely learned:
You cannot have a group of passionate people unless you know their passion. That may sound obvious, but hear me out.
A guy from Falling Whistles (fallingwhistles.com check it out--incredible story) came to the office to talk to us about standing up for social justice in the world. I have never felt so on fire and so empowered than when he came to talk to us. He said that liberty is united. Being united in our passion and being united in what makes us want to scream is the most powerful thing we can do. But if we don't know if the person next to us feels the same, how can we stand confidently in what we believe?
He challenged us to speak up.
Huddled around a laptop, we watched a clip where one man gets on a broadcast and gets ridiculously angry. He yells and screams at the camera because he believes in something and is tired of complacency. He is tired of not doing anything about it. He yells at the people watching him all across the nation and challenges them--orders them--to go to their window, put their head out and yell:

"I'M MAD AS HELL AND I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE"

And you know what? It worked. People put their heads out of their windows and were united in the streets. Everyone was livid. They were sick of what was going on and they weren't going to stand for it anymore. It gave me chills to hear every alley or street filled with angry voices. Angry voices united in passion and frustration.
Of course, its just a film clip and Hollywood probably took control...but seriously, how many of you would stand up for something if you knew there were more people standing with you? Its a fact: we're more likely to do something in a group. But there will be no group if there isn't an individual.
It takes guts. It takes one voice.

I challenge you to be a voice. You've been given the opportunity. Just go for it. Be mad as hell! Let your emotions run loose because you have the chance.

BECAUSE YOU CAN.
