“You
must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
Great
words as well as great deeds do not come by happenstance they come by
willingness. They are driven by a passion in the heart that inspires ordinary
people to do extraordinary things. And it doesn’t take much to be Extra-
Ordinary
In our
life we have been less than ordinary. We have struggled and we have crawled
along the gutter of mediocrity and self destruction. We do not assume to know the answers that
will allow me to continue in this life. We exist day to day, moment by moment
in the hope of finding one more breath, one more chance to make a difference in
life. One more effort, you always succeed when you tell yourself for one more
time effort in any aspect.
The
world we live in unfortunately is full of ordinary people, When I address the
word for ordinary people It doesn’t mean they cannot be Extra- ordinary. So it
is rare for a person to raise the heights of social consciousness for humanity
to follow. An individual though, when working with other ordinary individuals
can become a movement in society and that very movement can change the course
of humanity. This has been custom practice of all time and done throughout
history. Whether the steps we take are towards war or towards world peace, we
as a people are the ones that allow these changes and need to take the responsibility,
whether negative or positive, to take place. As we take a look at ourselves as
a human being, we need to think hard about the changes humanity as a whole
should experience.
What
do we wish to see? Where would we like to see humanity in fifty or hundreds of
years from now OR hundred years? What kind of life would we like our great,
great grandchildren to experience? What is on our horizon, war or peace,
terrorism or humanity?
Like
I say in my workshops and seminars all the time and I convey it now as well , I
am less than ordinary , Being an individual I might be nothing but when as it
is said that one man with courage is authority I would say that ONE MAN WITH
THE RIGHT WISH CAN IMPACT ON HUMNITY . I have not walked a perfect path not a single
man on this earth can claim . I believe I never will, but I believe I am on the
path that will lead to my peace , which will give space to my children and then
their children and on and on and on . I also believe that humanity is meant to
be together. We are one and the same. No amount of differences can cover that
fact. This is simply what we have in our heart and in that heart, we will see
that we are the change we wish to see in the world.
We need
to take simple steps that lead to be a prompt change all the time.
