Change can happen...

By Vichara

With a new day can there be a new change? An obvious question that, considering the exposed frailties and conflicts in the world, seems to be on the minds of many. I do not believe that this could be answered in one easy way. Instead of looking out there (TV, newspapers, internet) for the answers, I think that using a figurative mirror on our selves will begin to help. By only reflecting on how we incorporate the world in our lives, will we be able to help initiate change. Yes it is very obvious that the world issues are very large and overwhelming. Do not be discouraged, change can and will come but only if we change ourselves, one small piece at a time. You are not alone, we are not alone, they are not alone, and everything is inter-connected. So if we change, the whole world changes.

Did you know?
In the late 16th century, scientists noticed that the loose masses separated from a solution or suspension through precipitation often resembled tufts of wool, and they began to refer to them as "flocks," using another word for "tufts." (This "flock" is not related to the word "flock" that refers to a group of animals, which comes from Old English "flocc," meaning "crowd" or "band.") About two centuries later, the Late Latin term "flocculus" found its way into English and was also used with the meaning "a small loosely aggregated mass." By the end of the 19th century, a whole word family had been formed, including the adjective "flocculent," the noun "floccule," and the verb "flocculate."
