Go forth

Clicked through to The New Declaration of the United States of America website from an ad on the New York Times homepage. Interesting campaign from Levi’s, of all places, asking people to share their truths.

(Clever tie in of the “Go forth” concept and the Fourth of July)

Here’s a couple of the reader-submitted voices of the revolution:

“We hold these truths to be no brainers: that women are equal to men, that no one actually knows what the hell is going on, that we dance somewhere amongst chaos and faith, the pursuit of Happiness is never ending, that death comes to all but rock n roll, schools are better than bombs, love is to be shared, and the money is never worth it.” —Anonymous

“I want to go forth and explore.  Explore the unknown.  Integrate new cultures, beliefs, foods, sounds and more into my life.  I want to share these things with everyone.  That’s where I want to go.” —Anonymous
