For Fanpop's third annual Human Rights Awareness month, which I have organized every 年 since 2008 (OK, for two years), I am going to do...

Absolutely nothing.

And I am terribly guilty about it. 或者 I was. I'm disgustingly busy this year, so much that I barely have time to 潮流粉丝俱乐部 at all, let alone head an entire campaign that, let's be honest, only a handful of people on 潮流粉丝俱乐部 really care about anyway.

But I know that the people 阅读 this 文章 are part of that handful of people who do care about Human Rights, and about HRAM on 潮流粉丝俱乐部 this December, and were maybe even wondering, "Hey, how come Cinders hasn't made a peep about HRAM and it's already the sixth of December?" (Sappp, I'm thinking of you).

So for those of 你 who do care, I want to say this - thank you. And I want to say that I don't feel guilty about not doing much for HRAM this 年 because I'm worried that people will forget about Human Rights, 或者 won't appreciate it as much without HRAM (like that ever happened anyway). I'm sad because I'm letting the few people who DID enjoy HRAM, and DID think 更多 about helping out our fellow human beings this month, down.

So to you, I wanted to say - don't despair! Change your icon, change your motto, change your attitude, and go out on 潮流粉丝俱乐部 (and off of it) and make a difference in someone's life. As our slogans of the past have often stated, spread hope this season. Remember that December is that time of 年 that regardless of your religious creed, 你 think about those who are less lucky than 你 are, who have less than you, and yet are doing the best with it. And while this is something I try to remember all year, because people need 爱情 all 年 round, it's something I especially like to emphasize during this season.

To those of 你 阅读 this that, HRAM 或者 not, always go out this time of year, 或者 any other time, and help those who need it, love those who need it, to 你 I say - kudos. 你 are marvelous human beings who don't get the credit 你 deserve, and are maybe even stepped on 或者 insulted for whatever reason. But 你 have hope in your heart, and that's admirable.

And to those who are 阅读 this 文章 just for kicks and giggles, who think December is a time for commercialism and over-indulgence, I say - FEEL GUILTY. That's right, I'm not afraid to play the guilt card. I feel guilty, so 你 should too. Hanukkah and 圣诞节 and the 最近的 Eid are all wonderful celebrations and times for family and gift receiving, but remember that "family" are not just your blood 或者 your best friends. Family is the human race, and it's important to be aware that the world is not always kind, and not always fair, and not always generous, but there is beauty there, and I dare 你 to go out there and find it where 你 least expect it to be.

For now, that is all. Expect another 文章 from me in the future about the strides we have made this 年 in human rights achievements.

Dates to remember this season:

December 1: World AIDS Day
December 2: International 日 for Abolition of Slavery
December 3: International 日 for Persons With Disabilities
December 6: Canada's 日 of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women
December 9: International Anti-Corruption Day
December 10: International Human Rights Day
December 15: Bill of Rights 日 (United States)
December 16: 日 of Reconciliation (South Africa)
December 17: International 日 to End Violence Against Sex Workers
December 18: International Migrants Day

And don't even get me STARTED on why I haven't launched 潮流粉丝俱乐部 Secret Santa this year.
