As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.” ~ Mahatma Ghandi

Are You Waiting for Change?

It’s so simple really, and yet we persist in believing that other people or institutions are going to change our circumstances for us. We see this tendency when people are looking for life partners. They get swept up in those initial love feelings, and they believe that the other person is going to “complete them” for a lifetime. Divorce statistics say that this sort of thinking is faulty. When we adhere to that philosophy we cheat ourselves from our own soul work and growth.

It is not someone else’s job to complete us, nor should we be waiting for external forces to change the world for us. It’s time to change our thinking towards how we’ll contribute to and make the world a good place ourselves. It is so very fundamental. We cannot receive that which we ourselves are not willing to give.

Do you desire more kindness in the world? Be kind.
Do you desire more love? Be loving.
I could go on with more examples, but you get the idea.

We Must Each be the Change

We build a world around us that is of our own vision and making. That’s not just at a micro level of our immediate surroundings. These behaviors ripple outward. Other people learn from us by example, then together we build a better world. We should also expect from our leaders what we are working to build for ourselves.

So now I ask you, what kind of world will you personally choose to build today? Whether you believe it or not, the fate of the world rests partly in your own hands.

Get in the game, and be a light for the world.
