We need to be the change we wish to see in the world... My mind is always full of thoughts and somehow my laziness got the best of me. But I think now it is important for me to just pen down these thoughts... This blog for me is a chance to go back in time and read what I thought then...

We need to be the change we wish to see in the world

Ever wonder what life would be if you had changed something 5 years back. I am sure we all will manage to come up with at least one thing, if I am asked to change something in the future I will raise my hands and say impossible. But what if I am asked to change one thing today in such a way that I do not need to ever make any changes in the future which would also result in me not wanting to change my past. It is a convoluted thought but a simple mantra for blissful life.

It seems like a difficult task because we are so rigid that change only looks good on others. All of us time and again talk about change. All of us at some point in time have changed; whether we changed our fashion sense, our behaviour, our jobs, our homes, our friends, our career etc. We all have been party to the most commonly used and misunderstood phrase “Change is the only constant”. Misunderstood I say, well the change that we are talking about here is not the change that we see but the change that we feel. The phrase that is most apt is “We need to be the change we wish to see in the world”. And that can only come from within. 

I need to change myself to be a better me, change that can ensure that I am happy with myself every day of my life. This change no one else can bring in me other than me.

Life is all about living in the grey and not always searching for the black & white. As I have the ability to only change myself and not others, hence I have no right to club them in either extreme.
