Your Planet 2

My only explanation for the two words is ‘hope.’ I’ve noticed one thing commonly found among people today, we all are hoping for something, but not doing anything about it. The word hope is almost beginning to sound negative, as if it has become an excuse for us to not fulfill our expectations or desires. Why should one person hope their whole life for something, but have never done a single thing in their life to achieve that possibility. I do understand many things in life are not possible to physically reach out too, but what about the things that are reachable. Hoping for something, is almost wishing a genie would one day magically appear and give you three wishes. A man who hopes for the world, but doesn’t do a damn thing is wasting time. People have waited their whole entire lives for something better and die before receiving anything, only because they had built the foundation of their lives on the mere word of hope. Which has recently changed my perception, which has enabled me to open a whole new revelation of my life.

I know as an individual, I want to be able to change things for the better in this world. I want to be able to do things from as small as helping young kids afford playing sports to something much larger like helping build self thriving communities in the middle east. I want to be remembered for someone who made a change for the better of humanity. But the only thing that stops me is I’m either financially stuck or too busy with my education. With all that being said, all I can do is hope that I may be able to do more with my life. However hoping hasn’t changed anything yet, I’m still in the same exact position as I was 4 years ago, except with more education under my belt. It’s beginning to feel as if I will always be stuck in this same old routine of mine. But does it always have to be like that? From what I’ve finally realized, is that I can change this altogether. For instance why is that people are able to travel the world making a positive change like building better communities, while I’m stuck reading textbooks in University. It’s not a question of being fair, but its a matter of doing something about it. But how does it start? I believe it takes a bit of courage, faith, and self manipulation altogether.

Courage gets that energetic drive in you going.
Faith gets you in a positive mindset.
Manipulation changes how you perceive yourself as an individual entity in this world.

Whether you want to become an successful entrepreneur, a nobel prize winner, an inventor, or the next Gandhi, you have to remember hope will only stay a dream until you move forward. You want to be able to see yourself as a person who can make a difference, thus bringing positive energy to yourself. Everything we have today has been built by the hands of man, only because they went for it, so now its our turn to make “one day,” today.

Thank you,
