yes, you can change the world
In a communication class one of my students insisted on a firm decision to do everything possible to change his environment, his society, and the world in general. Of course, I understood his fervor and his ardent feelings, his disappointment and disillusionment with an anarchic world where values are dissipating giving free rein to all the fantasies, all the freedoms, without restraint, without moral values that would govern our actions, however, this student, swept away by his youth, seems disarmed and really has no means or strategies to "change the world".
I bet that this is the case for most young people in the world who live this dilemma preventing them from integrating properly into society. On the one hand, human nature, the instinct of birth and on the other hand, the "corruption of society"....
Here is the conversation that took place between us:
- I see that people disrespect everything, they destroy the environment without mercy, they no longer have any consideration for the human being, no importance of the family.
- Don't you see that what you are saying is a bit exaggerated, don't you see that there are laws and people respect them?
- That's where the catastrophe lies! People respect the law it's true but only for fear of sanctions, they are afraid to pay fines, afraid of being laughed at by others, afraid of tarnishing their images in front of people, in social networks etc.
- And don't you see that this is enough, it makes us gain points and still get results?
- No, not at all, the acts must emanate from an internal feeling, sincere and clear, by a defined principle and not only for a law or to please other people.
The human being must advocate spontaneous behavior that comes from his own conscience.
- And what makes you say that this is not the case?
- You only must look at the surveillance cameras, when people do not pay attention to their presence, they go far beyond their freedom. They no longer have any limits, they think they are above the law, they behave with bestiality.
- Sometimes this is true, and that is why there are laws and sanctions.
- It will take more, maybe more strength, it will take power to change the world.
- You do not see that this would lead to violence.
- Maybe so, but sometimes the end justifies the means.
- Not at all, but you will absolutely be able to change the world. Imagine that you live in an entourage that follows you, that watches and watches you, there are even people who admire you without you knowing it, they follow your steps, salute your behavior. This is more apparent on social networks. Influencers are admired by thousands of people.
Your behavior is imitated to the letter, reproduced, and transmitted, which is why you must positively influence those around you. You must inspire them daily through your actions, words, and decision-making. And remember positive behavior can inspire thousands of people for years to come. It gives you the opportunity to change the present and the future of the world
