my tomorrow
How will the way we live affect our tomorrow? Money will only change our lifestyle but not the way we feel. So if money is the main priority to the way we live, we can still in no way be changed emotionally to problems that need inner strength rather than what we can buy to fix problems in our lives, that are only temporarily. Every year is a new start for people with new hopes and aspirations. We can hope to accomplish so much, but it is not really us that we can change, it is actually how we can have an impact really on the world around us. Many people in underdeveloped countries, interestingly enough, I feel understand this in a special way. They have traditions and values that haven't changed for centuries. When we see these people on our television screens, as most news channels do, portraying them without hope. The simple fact is that they have held on to tradition and many of them I believe are richly blessed because they have what most of the rich, proud, and famous long for, peace. An inner peace, an unselfish peace, a compassionate peace. Most of what I've read and have heard from those I have spoke with of those in my family, whom are African and live in Africa, have said that they have peace and I could never really understand that, because from what I would see on TV. Every time I would see the madness and corruption that the news media would present over the air I would feel that these people were in some way immoderate. But these people are fighting not because they don't have discipline, but they are fighting for independence in their countries, but that part is never expressed over any news station. In this world money is not an issue, but agriculture, sustainability, culture, and all these things are what make a generation of people. We can't continue to set our own personal agendas and proclamations for a new year, but a rebirth, new way of thinking and viewpoint of everyone else in this world to make a positive difference.
