World Changer

Yesterday I was on a mission to change the world. I was so passionate about change that it was all I thought about. I lived and breathed” change.”I wanted to live in a unified world. I was young and ready to take on the world. I had new ideas( at least I thought they were). I focused on the things we all had in common. I didn't focus on race, religion, and gender. However, I did acknowledge those things because they were important and core values. In the past, they were the “ things.” that brought division. So I decided to focus on the one main thing that we had in common across the board. I focused on being human and nothing else. For a while, everything was going great, and we were striving, and we were starting to see change. And change takes work. Change can be challenging and uncomfortable at times. We must work on “change”every single day. Yesterday I set out to change the world. But in the end, the world wasn’t ready for change. Alexis Y. 03/21/2021
