I guess wanted to say how much i appreciate and am thankful for bands like Linkin Park who get so involved in organizations and charties that benefit so many people, like Music For Relief. They realize how blessed they are and the position they are in to be able to help those in need, and do.
Like Brad said in a MTV interview, "its easy to just to feel sad, but there are alot of ways to take that energy and put into something positive"
(i think Brad is an amazing individual by the way, he's so eloquent and smart, he really impresses me...and he's gorgeous...sorry that the girl in me talking)

The Music For Relief Benefit Show held on February 18th at the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim, CA raised more than $1 million dollars for the tsunami relief fund. Proceeds went through the Music For Relief organization to UNICEF and Habitat For Humanity programs in the South Asian region.
The Red Cross relief effort for the Tsunami has reached $236.2 million which is amazing!
I invite you guys to check out a song/video by Sarah Mclachlan, called "World on Fire" at http://www.worldonfire.ca or http://sarahmclachlan.com . Its a very inspiring and informational look at the world and how little it takes on our part to make a difference in it. Follow in the footsteps of this great band and give back what you can to our world, a world we all share as human beings and a world that needs our help and support.
