A new entry to share a song with you, If Everyone Cared Nickelback of .
Sometimes action causes a great movement, there are things that trigger a series of actions that can change the world. Sometimes we should think that our actions however small apply for something, that the union of many small actions can make the world a little better.
of this is the song in the video we see a series of events that ended up creating something larger.
I leave the translation of the texts of the video. (Copied from this post ):
1984. Music Journalist Bob Geldof turned-leader of Punk Rock. It was inspired by an article he read about the epidemic of hunger suffered in Africa, and began his fight against world hunger. Geldof organized the first major global charity concert, Live Aid. They performed 100 artists from around the world and was seen by 1,500 million people. Live Aid raised £ 150 million in one day.
* 1976. Betty Williams mother of two who worked as a receptionist. He witnessed the murder of three children during a political protest in Northern Ireland. Two days after the tragic events that Williams had collected 6,000 signatures to petition for peace. Peace with Justice. She led a peaceful march of 10,000 people to the grave three children. The peaceful march was disrupted by violent groups. A week later, Williams organized a march, accompanied in this case 35,000. Betty Williams was awarded that same year the Nobel Peace Prize.
* 1961. Peter Benenson Two students from Portugal in a peaceful gesture, raised their glasses in a toast to freedom. They were arrested and sentenced to seven years in prison. A British lawyer Peter Benenson, was impressed by the incident. To show their support for the two students wrote a letter to a local newspaper. The response was so overwhelming that it formed a committee to organize an advocacy campaign. Grew rapidly as a global movement, known as Amnesty International.
* 1920. Nelson Mandela A child of a South African town dreamed of the day when equality would prevail in his country. After years of activism was accused of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment. His dream of equality never died. In 1990, after 27 years in prison, Nelson Mandela was released. Mandela led South Africa to its first democratic presidential election. Voted about 19 million people. Mandela ended the regime of 'apartheid' which divided South Africa for 46 years.

Y aquí os dejo la letra de la canción:
From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight
Singing Amen, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I'm alive
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing
Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, I'm alive
And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along
Singing Amen I'm alive
Singing Amen I'm alive
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd see the day when nobody died
And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
We'd See The Day When Nobody Died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day When nobody Died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day When nobody Died
We'd see the day When Nobody Died
