Imagine a better America

One cannot deny the amazing rights, privillages, and opportunities that are afforded to American citizens. Unfortunately, inequality is still a major issue in America. Imagine an America where every citizens is treated equally. Imagine an America where every child is afforded a high quality education. Imagine an America where every state and neighborhood is full of resources and economic stability. This kind of America can only exist if we the people do our part.

Every human being desires the highest quality of life. Every human being desires financial stability, safety and security, quality education, quality healthcare, and equal opportunity. Everyday we witness a culture that values money and material assets far above people. In fact many times it appears as if people are a burden or liability instead of an asset.

Human capital is undervalued by many but understood by corporations and governments. Many of today’s American citizens undervalue their own selfworth and don’t understand how valuable they truly are. We must recognize our gifts and celebrate the accomplishments of others consistently. By investing in people and helping each other we can be the change we desire. There has never been a better time to mobilize than now.  There are great communities all over America that are often overlooked.

These hidden jewels are unfairly demonized by mainstream media and often forgotten by political officials. There is a movement of hope spreading like wildfire in America and people are mobilizing all across the nation. Remember no story is too small, no person is worthless, and everybody gets to play. You might just be the solution to somebodies problem or an answer to somebodies prayer.

Find a place in your community to volunteer and start positively impacting the world today. If we all become world changers individually we will reap the benefits collectively. Let love and compassion for all people drive you daily. You can turn your negative moments to promising opportunities. The unemployed individual who feels down on their luck, can be a valuable presence and great asset as a volunteer at a local community group or school.

The retired educator of professional can volunteer also and provide a special area of expertise for a community group or organization. Business owners and working professionals can provide training for youth and adults who lack marketable skills. There are plenty opportunities for us to help people daily by visiting sick and lonely elders, mentoring young people, teaching your special skill to others, cleaning up vacant lots, helping a neighbor, encouraging a stranger, creating job opportunities for unemployed people, and tutoring students just to name a few.

If we live selflessly and compassionately instead of selfishly imagine what America could become. There are people all across the nation holding onto this hope and working towards making it happen everyday. Hopefully this will inspire others to join the movement. Let’s make the dream a reality.
