Taking A Step Forward...

As kids we are always told to do what makes us happy. As we grow older we are told that true happiness comes from sacrificing what you love to have the people who you care for to be happy. After learning this, we look back and some of may regret some of the sacrifices we have made.

What can hurt most in life is when you do something for other people but they don't appreciate it well enough. However, that is not their fault, or is it? I mean if you really cared for that person shouldn't you be able to foresee? I am not a philosopher, but i can tell you that life is a game. A game where we are just players. Players that think they are capable of great things, but in the end do nothing because they believe that small actions won't have a big impact. That thinking itself is a flaw.  

Why not believe that you could be the change this world needs? I am sure even great leaders we learn about in history didn't even know how popular they would be. The point of becoming the change doesn't mean popularity. It means hope. If you have hope and you trust your instincts and dreams to be impacting, then go for it! Be the change this world needs. Things like this are definitely easier said than done, but if we all keep thinking this way, what is left in this world to hope for?

There are many shrewd people in this world, but what is to come of that when there is no one benefiting from it. You don't have to be intelligent to make a change. I don't know the exact saying but i have heard that a single pebble can have a bigger rippling effect than expected. Now I'm not sure if that is exactly the saying, but what i do know is changing the heart of one person or impacting one person's life is the change the world needs. That's all. 

Just remember that true happiness will come from those who want the people around them to be happy :) 

Keep Smiling and don't forget to chase your dreams :)
