"Small Steps-Change the World"

“I am just one man, how much difference can I make?”
[Rain falling on the cobblestone street]
“It is too hard to change my way of life; it won’t help,
Why bother?”

[Reflections dissolving into fractals in puddles]
“We are powerless against those who control the world”
[Angry red ripples expanding forever]
These are the lies we’ve been told, we’ve been indoctrinated
With all our lives, instilling us with a deep seated sense of
Helplessness. There is a great deal of power in each and
Every one of us, especially when we join together in
Brotherhood.
It IS our world, and we DO have a
Responsibility to help make it better. Even a small
Thing like picking up a bit of litter on the sidewalk,
May be more symbolic than significant, but SYMBOLS
Are important, showing by example that it helps
To take those small steps.
Many small steps equal a long journey; don’t be
Afraid to take the small steps.
