How can someone affect his surroundings?
In my english teacher's class there is a poster where it's written "be the change you want to see in the world'. This is on of the most inspirational Gandhi's quote. It makes you feel that nothing is impossible. In fact, nothing is truly impossible with two words: Will and perseverance.
Through the ages people like the Wright brothers and Albert Einstein were accused of being crazy, the only thing that they didn't know that between genius and madness their is an abstract fine line. However, they kept going on, they kept elaborating their theories with persistence until the invented stuff that has a prodigious effect on our world today. I know that most of you will think that these geniuses are just above other people mentality, and that achieving half what they have done is just abstract. However, i never asked you change to destroy the nuclear weapons in the world, no i am just saying that simple actions could do great changes.Look at me, i am an average city girl living in the busy streets of Cairo, Egypt. My class and I have decided to plan a water project celebrating the world water day on the 22 of march. We managed to collect 10 000 pounds. I know it's not a big amount to help solve the famine, but it's a good start. And that's what it's all about, initiatives. We can all stay in home, wondering when the world will be a better place, praying for god to send a ray of hope, but in the end nothing will change because, as my mother always told me, god only helps who works for what he wants. So instead of sobbing and bleating about how mush the world is the refugee for injustice try spending some of your time helping the less fortunate.
