The concept of “making a change”

Individuals, they say either think they are the product of Satan or Christ. I used to think that way too for some odd reason, till i realized that well everyone else feels the same way too. :) . Everyone from a young age also feel like that they have to make a change, like since they are the product of Satan or Christ, that they have to do something big and write their names in history. I used to think that way too, till I realized that things need to be done in a smart way rather than the hard way sometimes. I used to think that making a change would be to eradicate Sri Lanka of all corruption, or maybe even running for Presidency to end the civil war – very FOOLISH THINKING!!! – YES , but hey i was reaching for the skies so that i can atleast touch the treetops.

So my course of action in making a change has currently come under great scrutiny by myself. No more changing the country and no more fasts to end civil war. The new concept that i am theorizing, and well great scholars have already put this in words but i just found out last night { :) }, is to do something small and effective. The niche projects you can call them if you are a techy. We cant change the country, that would be like building the next Windows and taking over the OS market. But what we can do is make plug-ins for the current OS so that it well has say better secutiry features and like wise, in our generation or the next, we will not be able to solve all the problems of the world, but what we can do is make a small imapct, maybe get up in the morning tomorrow and teach a kid how to use the computer, or chat with some young school kid about the essentials of a good education and or maybe even why he/she should dream BIG!!!

  1. You are on the right path…

  2. For one thing I think one can ever rid SL of all the corruption. Maybe the invasion of the TIGERS will help ;) Hope that makes you feel better. There is a tamil saying what you were talking about reaching the coconut tops. Well I think that the concept of making a change comes in all forms. DO you agree?
