"I am only one; but I am still one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. I will not refuse to do the something I can do."
Helen Keller

Did you ever feel like there's no point doing something because you are only one person and can't possibly have an influence in a world of other people who want to do the opposite? Did you ever feel like your voice would be lost in the crowd? On the verge of a historic election, do you ever feel that there's no point in voting for an independant because he's never get in anyway? I think we all feel like that sometimes. But we must still be true to what we beleive in if we are to feel good about ourselves. If you beleive one thing, and do another because everyone else is doing it, then you are living a lie, and that is not worthy of respect.

If everyone felt like their individual voice would never be heard, what would the world be like. The most vocal, the most influential person would get their way every time, even if he had a very bad idea. Change always starts because one person had the courage to speak out. Revolutions always start out small. You would be amazed at what you can do if you insist on speaking your voice. Find some other people who agree with you.

It is true that one person cannot change the world. They can't do everything. But they can do something. And as they do something, other people will realize the value in what they are doing and want to help. And this is how the world is changed, one person at a time.
