Change is huge

Change is huge, be it change of school, change of city or changing the world. But any change requires some effort from our side, without which we cannot survive.

Many of us know that trees should be planted, roads should be cleaned, wildlife should be preserved, food contamination should be prevented, bribery should be abolished, violence should be shown its exit door, kids should be protected from abuse, current education system should be changed and more and more. We keep waiting for that one person who will come and change this world. Yes, we had a Gandhi to help us get independence, but if lakhs and lakhs of people had not come out of their homes to fight against the British, we wouldn't have had this independence. So why are we now waiting for just that one person or organization to work towards making this world a better place. Isn't it time we give atleast little bit of our time, effort or/and money to make this change?

"There's never one right way to make change....
One can do it as a Tech person, Finance person, non-profit person or an entertainment person. Everyone of us is all of those things and more. And I believe if we do these things, we can close the OPPORTUNITY gaps, we can close the HOPE gaps and if we can do this, the headlines in 10 years might read something like this...
New AIDS cases in Africa falls to zero
US imports its last barrel of oil
Israelis and Palestinians celebrate 10 years of peaceful co-existence
Snows have returned to Kilimanjaro
eBay listing for a presentation - obsolete museum piece, contact AlGore"

That's when he brought tears to my eyes. Many of us, even those involved in making this change, lose hope sometimes. Thanks to people like Jeff Skoll, this Change is inevitable!!
