Dream Chasing


I’ve had a dream of changing the world for a while now. It’s been this thought tickling the back of my mind. I watch my friends travel the world building orphanages, serving in leper colonies and digging wells so people can have clean water.

I keep thinking, I’m going to do something incredible with my life. My problem is that I haven’t decided what that something is. I haven’t set a time. I don’t have an objective. I talk the talk, but I don’t walk the walk.

I mean, I’m writing a book. It’s an ambitious endeavor… and I like writing. But my writing isn’t earth shattering or life changing.

It’s time for me to take what I know, and what I can do and make a difference instead of Tweeting about it. Any world changing suggestions? I’m all ears…

On a side note, I also have a tumblr blog. I gave up on Posterous.

    Hey Bags, I know I’m many years younger and wiser too, but I have something to say. I have found that changing the world isn’t always about making an extravagant plan and wowing everyone. It is about being aware of opportunities and taking advantage of them. Then amazing things happen. If you really want to serve and make a difference, an opportunity will present itself. This is my advice:
    1. Be aware.
    2. Be willing to put forth the effort to make it happen.
    3. Once it is happening, live in the moment.
    4. Realize that sometimes the world being changed is your own, and that is the biggest difference.
    5. Share your experience.

    Good luck, cous. :)
