pondering

sometimes we have to think of things bigger than ourselves.
Something beyond the extent of our knowledge or experience. How we come across
these situations may be simple, the consequences; however, are not.
We believe in a world that stretches outwards, one that covers the outskirts of our town,
our nations, the world. Despite this belief, our dreams, our hopes, and
our actions are limited to the tip of our own front lawn. How can this be?
Ingenious ideas have been here for many years, perpetuating knowledge,
endlessly changing and molding itself into
whatever society we shape. We, as individuals, have been here for quite a few years,
much less able to give an impression on such a vast canvas. Nevertheless, a notion given today may decide
the fate of the world tomorrow. Who invented? Someone crazy, someone unbelievable, someone passionate.
A person who didn't just crave to secure their own future, but rather desired to secure the future for mankind.
What I am trying to say is, we must engulf ourselves in these ideas, the desires rather, to change
the world. Why be limited to what you're going to do tomorrow or the next day? We are passionate people,
perfectly able, completely apt. It starts with what you do, with what you decide not to do. It begins
with our ideas, with our words, with our actions and it ends when you stop caring about what happens.
