Just a drop in the ocean!


Gandhi said to be the change you want to see in the world. But what if the world around me doesn't want to change? You’re stuck with no light at the end of the tunnel. No way out! In the midst of international relations enthusiasts and yet they seem to not understand its very concept. You want to change the world, but you refuse to change yourself by bridging social capital and letting new in. Putnam I think never imagined the degree of exclusion associated with bonding social capital. It’s a lonely world, where people aren't open to the different and prefer to shut their eyes and imagine as invisible the lost and floating ; the very opportunity given to them to experience life through another. Subsisting within your walls, keeping different out? Not a language barrier, not the fear of a culture invasion. Instead the choice is self made to keep on the outside what you believe doesn't bleed like you. In fact, the wounding pain of exclusion and invisibility causes more blood from one than the joining together of all those that swirl around behind their vacuum-tight smoke screens. You want to change the world… then be real about who you are and change yourselves first. Open your hearts to the lost souls around you, because their blood is not as green as you think! Changing the world is not just moving mountains, but it’s touching the hearts of the forlorn and the joining together of souls from the farthest reach of the imagination.
