What Do We Do About It?

Tuesday, August 8th, 2006

I should think the real question that needs answering is what are we each doing about it? As a matter of habit, most of us say “Well, individual effort is never enough, change has to happen en masse.” or “That’s the government’s responsibility, that’s why I voted them in.” or “We need a new leader.”

The truth is the only person we can actually control is ourselves. The only person who can affect the changes you want to see, the world you want to live in, is you. All large changes happen because a large group of people come to want what ends up being the same goal AS INDIVIDUALS. Each of us can make a difference in this world through our own actions, our own thoughts, and our own minds - the only thing we really have under our control.

Ask youself: what am I doing right now to make the world better for myself?

“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” -Gandhi

What do you think about THAT?
