Do you ever go through those phases in your life where you feel like things are moving but its all just the same scenery over and over again? I feel like that right now.

I have this burning charge deep down inside me to change the world, sort of like a compass, pushing everything I do to make it a better and make a bigger impact. When I was a kid I pushed harder and went just a little bit further than anyone else trying to make things happen. Which can be good at times except the thing with that kind of passion is that it does not always get you somewhere. Sometimes it just means you approach the things in your life like the wagon song from summer camp… You know the one.

“You can’t ride my little red wagon, the wheels are broken and the axle’s sagging. Second verse same as the first just a little bit louder and a little bit worse. You can’t ride my little red wagon, the wheels are broken and the axles sagging. Third verse same…..”  You get the point.

That is what I feel like today. Like I am just taking the same things that other people do and tweaking them to be a little bit louder and a little bit worse. But small tweaks is not what I set out to do, I want to change the whole game not just the way its played. I want to push us all to feel the pain of the wrongs in the earth and give out the tools to make them right.

I know that there are a lot of things wrong out there and once you dig into any of them it all starts to get way to overwhelming. And that is OK. What we really need to learn to do is focus on what we can change and get to work.

I for one am sticking to the original plan, even if it does feel at times like its the same mess over and over. There will be light at the end of this tunnel and it will be worth all it took to make the world a better place.

Are you with me?
