Change, It Starts With Me

Change is inevitable in nature for it naturally changes every day whether we notice it or not. Unfortunately, such statement cannot quite be said for maybe some of us humans. We long to have a better life, a life where there is no poverty, everyone is fed, no war just unity and corruption is nothing but a thing of the past. But… why hasn’t it happened yet? If we really want to change the “system”, it should have happened a long time ago. Sure, we all scream for change to happen but, are we willing to change ourselves first in order for that change to happen?

“Change, it starts with YOU!” people used to say but it ended up that “you” has been passed on to the next person to the next until it is forgotten. Sadly, some people are just waiting for change to just fall on their lap to make their lives better. For those who does want change and actually DO something about it, they ended up being seen as crazy for through the eyes of some people change is impossible. Some people often say that they are better than those people and refuse to follow the man or woman who did something for change. They say they are better but in reality he or she is just sitting there watching other people change the world for him or her, why doesn’t he or she help out? We don’t have to be a “somebody” to make a difference.

Presidents or leaders who truly want change, who has a vision for a world we all aspire ended up being blamed for the way people live. Like, they are poor, have no job, hungry, have too many children, and no food to feed their kids because of the person who is leading their community or nation. But, a lone person leading billions of different people can only do so much, we must all do our part if we want to change the way we live, do our part to make our people’s lives better. Don’t always depend on other people, we must move and do something. It doesn’t have to be something big, the little things can have a big influence too because “Everything We Do Counts”. Like a pebble being thrown in the water, even that makes a change in the way it flows; how much more a skipping stone?

Make a change and everyone else will follow. Together change can no longer be just a dream, if we stand our ground and never giving up for change starts when we decide.
