Be A Force Of Change That Is Equivalent To Nature

If we broke down our differences to the thought of sheer humanity, we could be the equal movement that changes the way climate change is seen, forever.

A purpose that sociologists have in this life is to define and label social problem for what they are, where they then go forward and enact social movements to the force of change. As I sit here and watch our world falling to pieces around us, when everyone is so concerned with politics, job, money, their social life or school, I ask this question; if the world dies around us, will any of those things matter?

The question seems very self-explanatory, and the answer is no. For, if the world stops turning, if the atmosphere caves in, if the sun bursts before we even know it, then none of the little petty things in our lives will have even mattered. All that wasted time, arguing, hating, holding back and assuming will have been for nothing, as even as the world is not over yet, it is all still for nothing. The only true problem that is worth facing, as other problems always tend to involve inequality, is climate change. It always comes down to fair treatment. Whether it be among race, age, gender or social class, the biggest struggle in our world today is the amount of inequality and judgment passed over individuals in our society. The only problem we should be dealing with however, should be climate change, for if we acknowledged it for the problem that it is, and came together in efforts to abolish the elites viewpoint on an infinite supply of natural resources, then that would be all of us coming together to break down our differences for an equal cause and right, which is to continue breathing on this world that we claim to hold most dear. Our perspectives and our values are what makes us unique at the end of the day, yet we are all the same beings walking among the same planet, which would easily come to an end if we do not take the power that we have been given in numbers to make the change necessary for our survival. We have been given the power, a power that we fail to see, yet all we have to do is come together with the equal souls around us, and before you know it, we are people living in a world of purity all over again.

The world around us is decaying, as are we. We can either be the change that causes the evolution of a lifetime, or watch blindly as we are trapped in our own minds, to afraid that the end is something that we cause with our divine purpose, which is to live and prosper. However, if we do not go about living in green ways, for nothing green can stay, then the gold that we delude ourselves with will be our doom. So, to the people who wish for future generations to not have to worry about the ways in which we have ripped apart this world we've been given, for our selfish desires, lets be the change that enforces this society to be more then what we think we are, and be the society that wishes to claim our right to live.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
