So the circle continues, spiralling downward or upward depending on your point of view. No matter how many times we get knocked down, it is the fact that you keep getting back up and moving forward that leads to real change.
This is kind of how I see things. I obviously see the negatives in the world, but I'm just one person. I can, however, affect change in my life, from how I raise my kids, to how I help others, to how I interact with those in my community. I know a lot of kids who are, say, 17 to 23 and in talking with them and hearing about their experiences away in college - how they find the world to be once they leave suburbia, what interests them, and what direction they want to move in. Overall, it's positive. These are good, intelligent kids/young adults who contribute to society and may eventually raise their own kids in the same way. Change doesn't always have to be a big grassroots movement.
Sometimes it's a subtle shift in the wind that's difficult to see at close range, but down the road is evident.
