Ripple Effect

I am thankful to every thoughtful mind that has the courage to make a change in this world. We can do any thing when we put our mind into it. I am not only talking about big changes, like Bill Gates whose mission started in the dorm room; I am talking about everybody who has even made the smallest difference in this world and proud of himself. This world is beautiful because of us, people!!!! Imagine, if everything stays intact while suddenly only human species vanish completely from this Earth, what will happen? Within a month plants and weeds will grow wherever, animals will walk around everywhere, the beauty of this world will be destroyed totally – even thinking of it gives me goose bumps!!!! Everyday, we, people are making a difference in this world knowingly or unknowingly. We are the best creations, we are important and our love gives hope to us and everybody around us. As Dawud Wharnsby Ali said in a song, “I am my worst enemy and I’m my very best friend”.


We are not all evil, unless we focus and dwell in the animal side of us more. We matter, so nothing of our efforts will be wasted. Individually we are gifted with possibilities. As we are created with unlike genetic combination, we face this life distinctly and our views are also unique. That’s the beauty and the strength of mankind. We can solve any problem with our focused effort. When we face any difficulties, we tend ourselves towards easy way out, quick fixes or short cuts – we blame others and try to give up on ourselves which only spread poisons to our own souls. Thus we fall into depression, we try to forget the strength of our own ability and get involved with any kind of addictions which do keep us away from the real problems and the real solutions. But the difficulties (in the first place) brought the blessings in this world. When we passionately focus to resolve any difficulties in a hard and a proper way from reoccurring, we make the biggest inventions which not only comfort us, but also the whole world; like the cure for Malaria and Breast Cancer, the invention of aviation and electricity ---- the list will go on and on, because the examples are all around us. We are living in an era where somebody has faced a problem and resolved it and made our life easy. He has seen every problem positively and he has the strongest faith and confidence that there is a cure or a solution and it will be found. He has started the ripple effect.
