Good joke
Can you imagine going to the bakery and when you take your service ticket, you realise that has thousands of people in front of you? Does it seem frustrating? Imagine if your life depended on it.
In a campaign to raise awareness about organ donations, the Santa Casa from São Paulo, Brazil, promoted a “practical joke”. When entering the bakery, customers took the service ticket with a five digit number (eg 27 863), while the panel’s attendance shows a number with only three digits (eg 140).
However, before the customer could complain, the ticket itself explains the action: “This would be your position if you were in queue to receive an organ. Be an organ donor. Communicate your family. “
The action called “Waiting Ticket” sought to promote, briefly, the same sensation that is felt by those waiting for an organ transplant.
With awareness, the number of donations may increase significantly. For many patients, organ transplant is the only way.

Gostei dessa idéia, vai conscientizar as pessoas á doarem! (:
If we were a little, just a little more conscious of others pain, of others suffering, the world would change a lot. Just a little change in our state of mind is enough to make great changes, something that is cheap, free, and cost so much to get… And it is about politics, religions, traditions, living status… People suffering today can be ourselves tomorrow. It is just a humanizing change needed. Me is you, you are equal to me, we all are the same human creatures with our reality and dreams, but humans at the end. Whising the best for the others is loving the best ourselves. Help others will be our best help to ourselves.
The world we have is just the world made because of our way of thinking as human race in global. If there is no a peacefull world, if there is no clean energies, if people fight to death for sad ideologies (I think wars are always the fail of reason)… these are the results of human state of mind failure and nothing else.
So, if this were so, it would be very easy to turn the world into a more beautiful, peaceful, miracle place. We humans are the only responsables of our History and the environmental issues we have. And we are the only ones who can change it, cause it is all human made, mind made, and mind can change. It sound absurd? Maybe then our evolution is something absurd too.
When I think this way there is a hope coming up inside my spirit. Hope for a more positive human race, for building new precious thoughts, new ideals… to be the seed for our own and new generations to live in a more human, responsible, environmental and mind positive Gea.
Donation is human high love. Donation is the best.
