Restoring Faith In Humanity 2013

                                                               Restoring Faith In Humanity 2013

I believe this video on YouTube really shows how there are some good people in the world. Many people think everyone is greedy and selfish, but they're wrong. Many people help others because it's all about giving back. Giving back to the world. For example, Justin Bieber is always looking for ways to give back. He helped build a school for needy children in Guatemala. He also flew out to the Philippines to help out Typhoon Haiyan victims. That proves that he IS A GOOD PERSON. He's always giving back, just like the people in the video did. They helped out people in need. PEOPLE SHOULD START BELIEVEING THAT THERE ARE STILL GOOD PEOPLE OUT THERE.











#BELIEVE



















ps: Justin Bieber's movie Believe3D will be out in theaters on December 25, 2013.!!
