Unleashing Thoughts

Change an Individual, change the world

The little child kept talking to his father while he was reading the newspaper. The man was concentrating on a map in the newspaper that he flew into a rage because of his irritating child and torn the page of the newspaper. To teach his child a lesson he gave him that page which was having the map on and put him into his room telling him not to get out until he had put the torn pieces of map into right order. That was considered to be a very difficult task; how will the little child know the continents of the world. To his surprise he found his son coming out after a few minutes showing him the map in the correct order. The man wondered a lot and asked his son how he did it in that short time. That was the little boy’s answer “If I had managed to fix the earth I would have failed. I looked at the opposite side of the paper and found the face of the human. I fixed only the human and consequently the earth was fixed.”

Why not you? Why not you change the world? Thinking it’s too late, well then let it be your child who would change the world not just live and die as an anonymous. Why not take a decision from now that my son or daughter will be the person who will change the world. Work for that from now. Choose your partner who will bring up that person. What will change the world other than a sperm and ovum from a couple with challenging enthusiasm?

Nice story Ahmad. There is a lot of truth in it too, we can’t alter the Earth easily but we can affect global change through people quickly and effectively. Very inspirational story.

Honestly! What is so wrong about the world??
People should realize by now that there will never be such thing as world peace.. And for sure no such thing as a better world for there is no such thing as perfection except in our longman dictionaries.
I am not being negative.. no not really!!
People DIE.. I am aware of that..
People are dying of many things..
War.. Murder.. Famine.. Funky Monkey Disease.. You name it..
WHY?? I don’t know why!! There’s no defined answer to that question..
So raising a child who probably will become a politician.. environmental lawyer.. someone who’ll save dogs from the cruelty of man kind.. Ban diet coke and perhaps shut down KFC once and for all.. I frankly don’t see that that’s the solution to our problem..
I frankly don’t see the problem..
People are stupid.. We make mistakes..
We disappoint..
We’re more complex than just a problem definition, an objective and an approach
Some of us are evil.. but what’s evil??
They must have suffered to some extent as well..
There’s nothing wrong with the world..
We’re just messed up…
You want the world to be a better place?
just don’t mess up your child’s life..
