R-R-Revolution

Revolution doesn’t start with a battle. It doesn’t start with a rally or protest. It starts in the heart of someone who sees a problem and is willing to be the change. It’s one thing to want a revolution it’s a completely different matter to start one. It can be fun, standing up for what you believe in, going against popular trends and doing everything in your power to stand up for exactly what it is that you believe in. We see revolutions all throughout history. Many were successful, even more were not. You have to be brave, selfless and totally committed to what you believe in. So committed that even if you can’t change anything your still as convinced as you were from the start.

Revolutions are catchy. People like to live vicariously through others revolutions. They can get messy. It’s easy to catch on with the energy without completely understanding the source. Revolutions are dangerous. Sometimes you have to risk things that you worked hard for because what you believe in is that important. Most of the world doesn’t see revolutions as necessary, but that’s where they’re wrong. So here's the question, how do you take something that you feel so passionately about and try to convince the unconcerned to feel the same?
