Changing
the world is imperative for a better world, and most people recognize
it as fact. However, what people don’t tend to acknowledge is that
changing the world is very easy, and happens every day. Why it remains largely unnoticed is that when it happens, no angels sing, or demons roar. That is why people do not perceive
this change that has happened.
Changing
the world is a very straightforward matter. For every action we are
told there is an equal reaction. However, that doesn’t really apply
with changing the world. Every little, insignificant action that we
partake of in this world changes it: For better or for worse.
The
very thought of that being so is singularly quite terrifying. What we don’t do, will affect this world. In fact, sometimes what we don’t do is more influential than what we actually consciously try and do. Like the very old saying about good men doing
nothing. Sometimes less is more.
An example of this would be a child walking across a busy street. Already it sounds like a story that will end badly, and it is, if you choose to do nothing. While most people would do something, for the sake of the example, let's just say you didn't. Naturally, the child dies because you didn’t do anything. By doing
nothing, you have changed the world. You have changed the course for
what that child could have done for the world, but also you have
changed the parents lives forever. With their child gone, their lives
will never be the same.
All
simply by doing nothing.
The
world isn’t that hard to change. Its only quite hard to change
it in a certain manner. If you are going to change the world for a
better place, you have to realize that everything you do--- counts.
Probably if you spent your whole life trying to not change the world
for worse, you might actually make the world a better place.
In
this world, inaction is just as guilty as action, because do nothing
changes the world. However, making the conscious decision to think
things through to what will make a better world is the start for one. And the
rest is always rethinking what action does make a better world.
