You do not need to do big things to change the world, you can do small things each day to change the world for one person. One small and simple act of kindness can change someone's life forever. This will always have a ripple effect as they will then do something to change another's life. It all starts with you.

This video always touches home for me, gets me close to tears each time.
I want to share an experience I had not to long ago. I was at school and life at that time was hard, we were nearing exams and everyone was more stressed out than usual. I didn't have many friends in most of my classes and often did assignments and experiments alone. I did not mind much as I would rather not want to be rejected by the other students and I was then also able to concentrate better and get the work done faster.
But while going through the work I would always sit there with a loneliness in my heart as I looked around me and saw everyone working together.
One day our teacher had given us a new experiment in our Physics class. As I looked through the guidelines for the experiment my heart sunk as I would not be able to do this experiment all by myself. I asked a few guys next to me if I could join them, but they said they were to many already. After trying to join a few other students I sat down in my chair at the back of the class.
One of the girls in my class walked past me, on her way to her group. They were a fairly small group of students which had already started the experiment. She saw me sitting their alone and walked over and asked if I would like to join them. At first I though it was all in my head, till she tapped me on the shoulder and said it would be impossible for me to do the experiment on my own.
Her act of kindness helped me get high marks that term for Physics, If she hadn't helped me I would of probably done bad that term and would have eventually dropped Physics and taken another subject.
One person can not change nothing 😢 and I think that unfortunately people do not care about this 😢

If we all decide to share am act of kindness each daily one day we would wake up to see a better world.
I would share a little experience where a friend of mine took care of me when i was in the lowest point of life and i was staying with him in lagos he tool care of me till i was back on my feet evem though it was not convenient, he gave me a different perspective about life today my friends can come around my house, eat drink take whatever they like and go and i am always happy to help anyone in need because someone dropped a little act of kindness in my life.

Literally, the message from a book on bullying my 5-year old daughter had from School "if you see someone on their own, ask them if they want to join your game".
@rhubarb, I have to disagree, these little everyday interactions multiplied by the billions of people in the world are what makes everything work, it's just that people don't normally take the time the notice it.

We need to show people that doing good no matter how minute it is can change the world. Not until you do something great before you can affect people's life.

If you think you are too small to make a change, try sleeping with a mosquito one night :) . The question all of us should ask ourselves in the morning is what good shall i do today? Contribute as much as you can.

So very right @africaunited, it need not be a big bold gesture, just something small that can have a huge impact on someone else! I always go back to the phrase 'practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty' by Anne Herbert I believe. We can at least try and change the world around us, imagine if that kind of thinking becomes contagious, would be a much better world for everyone. Awesome video, loved your post!

Be what you are. Do what you love. Speak what you feel. Don't hide your humanity. Celebrate it. Embrace it. That is how you change the world.
Don't underestimate the power of your vision to change the world. Whether that world is your office, your community, an industry or a global movement, you need to have a core belief that what you contribute can fundamentally change the paradigm or way of thinking about problems. Thanks for this inspiring post.
