We can't change the people in the world only our attitude and change in ourselves to make a difference,

To be there for my family is first thing ,.

Be the change you want to see.

It isn't about changing others, it is about what we can do to change the world for the better, just our own little contribution

I think I am to the point of not wanting to make further changes in regards to myself or my life. I should be out more, fight in the outside world for the things I believe in, I know that, but most things I have changed for myself and had hope for also on a wider scale, were taken by the system or turned out to have other implications. I changed to Fairtrade and even actively tried to inform people about their own consumer power, but years on now and big companies appear to have hijacked the label. I turned to vegetarianism, but there are implications connected to that in regards to insect and rodent life. Still fiercely believe that we have a responsibility to ensure that the meat we consume has been farmed in a caring manner, and that our methods of slaughtering others need to be majorly reformed, something I should be out there fighting for.. but I am just tired and out of steam sort of. I just want to be away from most of humanity, and even though I do interact here same as in my gaming community, it's easy as I can turn my back any time.

Maybe it is lazyness, maybe it is disillusionment, but I am to the point of looking away now mostly. Not happy that I do, it's selfish and wrong and I know it, but at the moment I just keep it as is sad flower

Continue to open the minds of young people, if we change the young we change the future.

This does not mean brain wash them, unless they're my own or their views differ from mine crazy

thumbs up

I hear you. I often work and help people wanting change in their lives, but when I'm done, I'm done, and I close my door to the world.

Not always a good way to be, but it suits me.

If I hear or see about small changes I can do to make my time here a bit better for the environment, or society, I do try to do them.
I will never be an activist as such, just little changes.
