Justin participates in Rock The Pitch

Posted On: August 4, 2010 • Filed Under: Canada, MiscellaneousNo Comments »

From the official site:

Justin will be participating in the Athletes for Africa Rock The Pitch charity soccer tournament on August 14th.

Athletes for Africa is a charitable organization that uses the power of sports to educate and engage Canadians in Africa’s fight against poverty, famine and disease.

Justin wrote a personal message on the matter, as it is a cause that is very close to his heart:

I imagine myself as a child in the midst of war. To witness the slaughter of people I love… to be born into such a situation.

Wow…I’ve had nightmares, but to experience this as reality is unimaginable. I do very much want to be part of planting/watering the seeds of peace and love, and to fight for us to enjoy life as a collective on this Earth. There’s NO REASON why we ALL shouldn’t be given the right to enjoy our lives. I have faith in LIFE, and that we can collectively experience LOVE together in a world of harmony.

I believe the strongest forms of love come from the strongest of suffering and in that belief, the war child is who will lead us to real love. PEACE
