BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT

If you really want to change something, you have to take the first step and be a role model for others. Because without you doing something, the world won't be a better place. Each of us was born to make the world a better place. With the possibilities and means that we have. Every small step is crucial.

Be it just to be friendly to the other person and to accept him for who he is. If everyone did that little gesture, that acceptance, there might be fewer wars, lesser deaths and lesser suffering in the world. Because what's the name of it? LOVE THE NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF! So easy and yet so difficult. But why is that so? What prevents people from loving others as they are? To appreciate them as they are. Because isn't that exactly what makes the world so beautifully colorful? All the variety there is? Isn't it all about living together? Can't we learn from each other? Would we just put aside false pride and open our hearts to one another?

Because in the end we are all only visitors to this earth in our lifetime. We should all have the same rights. No one should be "better" than the other. Because nobody is worth more just because they may have more riches. Because basically we all feel the same. We all long for love, warmth, and affection. So shake hands, stand up for one another and, with small gestures like world, make a better place through your actions, where nobody has to feel unwelcome!
