change
[cheynj]
noun
To make the form, nature, content, future course, etc., of (something) different from what it is or from what it would be if left alone
The world we live in is constantly changing,
The earth is in constant motion, season's come and go changing the physical appearance of this earth.
People change, for better or worse.
Things are going to change. Things will always change.
"It's when change becomes normal that it's time for normal to change." (Carrie Burleigh)
I'm not the same person I was yesterday and by the grace of God I will not be the same person I am today tomorrow.
Feelings change, ideas change, thoughts change, prejudices change, emotions change, everything changes. That's the way it will always be, that's the way it's always been.
Change is hard to become accustomed sometimes, like when you're best friend moves out of state or a long relationship is cut off.
There are some times though when change is welcomed with a smiling face.
Embrace the change. Be the change.
Our generation doesn't have the best reputation.
We live in a society where drugs, alcohol, and sex are common.
Is this how we want to be remembered?
Do we want the generations to come to look back at us and talk about how messed up and disgusting we were?
I sure don't.
This society isn't going to change itself.
Things need to be done, voices need to be raised, hearts need to be touched, eyes need to be opened.
We need someone to make a stand.
Someone to be the change.
"You must be the change you want to see in the world." (Ghandi)
What do you want to change in your world?
Get up, and do something about it.
I'm on my feet, screaming at the top of my lungs.
My name is Carrie Burleigh and
I am the change.
Are you?
