The people around us are our mirrors
Each reflects the complexity of life
We are continually surrounded by facades
False and true fronts
What do we expect?
Our expectations are different
But what about others?
Should we impose our expectations
But not our enviable values?
Be the change we wish to see in others
Being one can jolt the mind
Arresting fruitless pseudos
And anchoring on the impressionable ones
Be the change and not changed
Lest we are shortchanged
Initiators are modelled
Envied and admired

i really like this poem. for a better future we need to have positive change.to become better doesn't mean we change our personalities but our viewpoint to the world.
I find the leading and honest, straightforward life is much more rewarding than a pseudo-one with all that drama and wasted time. This first change goes, one must always keep up with positive change, but not follow fads that are change for the sake of change but not for the fulfillment of life.
