Blogging is more that just writing about your own life and experiences.It is more than just reviews and giveaways. Sure I love them things. It makes blogging fun. However, sometimes blogging can be used to help others. I recently joined a campaign called "Bog It Forward to Fight World Hunger." I was offered the opportunity to use my blog for the greater good- helpting people by writing about fighting world hunger. If all of us just do a little, it will be a lot.

All of you surely know what it is like to feel hungry. it's uncomfortable,often painful and I know personally I rush to get something in my stomach to make them feelings go away. Imagine not having anything to put in your stomach. Imagine that feeling of hunger, pain and discomfort lasting hours, days or even weeks. Gosh, I can not even imagine. Luckily at this point in my life I dont have to worry about experiencing that. But you never know what tomorrow will bring. You do not know what the future holds. For that, I am always greatful for what I have today. And for that I feel the need to help others.
