You speak very much to what I believe is key - the power of something to cause someone to do something that could be beneficial to another, or even oneself, as a result of that action. <br /><br />Who is to ever know what seemingly small, seemingly insignificant, thing would have the power to make a difference?<br /><br />Pleaee feel free to say hey on Twitter, if so inclined, and let me know who you are. :-)Elizabeth Alraunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06424278576626529817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5168337788506782369.post-86505178881089357002009-06-16T18:28:49.561-07:002009-06-16T18:28:49.561-07:00My avatar is green.

That is ridiculous. <br /><br />But I do know that oppression and isolation are difficult things to work through. Being bullied and threatened with your life can make you feel very, very alone. <br /><br />And then came Twitter. It has given the common man in Iran a voice where there was none. And if they can see that they are not alone in their battle for freedom and justice and they can see that someone is paying attention then it might just give them the strength they need to continue to push forward...and all it took was for me to turn my avatar green. Such a little thing to show someone you care.<br /><br />Not only that, but everytime I tweet and people see the green avatar, they are reminded that there is a battle going on for justice. It makes it difficult for them to turn their backs to it and act like it isn't happening. It is in their face one more time. Maybe someone somewhere will say a prayer when they see it and THAT can bring freedom to Iran.Redo It GFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10716302939503446339noreply@blogger.com
