Building A Worldview: Bono and Africa

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I really believe that at the heart of skilled living is having an accurate and well-developed worldview, how one views and interacts with the world around them. Ideas have consequences. How we view the world around us will determine how we think, how we act, where we invest our time and money, and what causes we pursue. Bono, in this talk in Feb of 2005 describes the growing crisis in Africa explaining that it not a matter of charity, but rather of justice. Filmed at the TED conference, an annual conference that brings together the worlds most innovative minds to share ideas, Bono reminds us that worldview matters because lives are at stake.

TED rocks! One of my favorites was about the dangers of men blogging.

Have you noticed how Bono hasn’t aged since Joshua Tree…

Haha! You’re right, he is still as much of a young rock star as ever, only much more wise! It amazes me how much he has accomplished so far. I’ll definitely have to check out the dangers of men blogging talk, sounds interesting!
