Life is full of changes

Change affects everyone, yet we feel that is only affects us.

There is so much change going on in the world does anyone have a clue what is going on? Do we really understand what we are doing to each other? We think that change only happens to us. There are personal changes that affect our daily life. What about the changes that affect the world? Do we even know how those changes will affect us, our children or the rest of the world? 

Do we truly know what we say and what we do with have any effect on someone? We may have some idea of what we say or do will affect someone, but in what way? Does what we say and what we do have the greatest effect on people in the most positive way as possible? I don’t think that is the case. 

How do we change that? How do we start living a better life for the people around us and the world? I am not certain the exact answer to this, but it starts with each of us. It can be as simple as treating people the way we want to be treated, but that is not the case in some parts of the world. That is not the standard most of us have grown up with. Most of us have been taught to do unto others before they do unto us. 

Well, how does that solve any problems? How does that make us a better person and a better planet? It doesn’t and it has to stop. I can’t change the world, but I can change myself and how I react to the world. I can take a stand and choose to do what is right. Morally and ethical. I have that choice and so do you.
