“It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there will be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.”

Mahatma Gandhi Indian political and spiritual leader

You don't have to be the one who actually gets to taste the "ripened fruit", to feel good about "growing it" for someone else to enjoy! Making progress matters just as much as the intended goal, because without progress, desired results cannot be achieved. The time for working towards significant CHANGE is NOW! Doing nothing or leaving it up to the next generation is not an option! I'm purposely not specifying any certain topic here, because this applies to so many issues going on in today's world. So, you decide what you think is important and YOU be the CHANGE AGENT starting TODAY! All great initiatives started with the someone, just like YOU...a tiny seed, a thought in someone's brain. So, water your seed(s) and start growing your "fruit". Hopefully, you will get to enjoy the "fruits of your labor", but if not, someone eventually will and it's because of YOU! Be that CHANGE in the world, that you so desire and never underestimate the POWER OF ONE! Thank you!
