Change the world.

GRRaphic ACTivism

Whenever I say publicly, “I want to change the world!”, some folks will jump in gleefully telling me that I can’t.

But what they’re really saying is they can’t.

They are saying they’re afraid. That they don’t know how. That they don’t know where to start. And they don’t have the resources or the community or the balls.

I know I can’t change the world, but I also know that I don’t have to—I only need to be willing to try. And then find the others who are.

The world is always waiting, ready for change. We all have the power inside of ourselves. The shame is that we don’t see enough other people doing it.

That’s why we need to form communities. That’s why we build connections with other people who have the same power of change inside them, other “change agents.”

So, instead of being frustrated and frozen by overwhelm, I’m going to use my tools and skills, my knowledge and my voice and again set out to change the world.

I hope you can join me.
