Improving Community Through Personal Change

It is a difficult prompt to answer.

As a private job holder, whenever I joined a new company, most of the times, I have been told to get adjusted to the system of the organisation and don’t try to change it.

I tried two times and have burnt my fingers. I had to sit home without the job.

But now, about the prompt.

There are many ways, if one decides, can change the community.

India has many such great examples and the one whom the whole world praises is Mahatma Gandhi.

“Be the change you wish to see in the world”, was his doctrine.

So, the change should start with self. Many times, it’s difficult to follow such doctrine, but we should try our best.

We can teach our kids on the manners to behave in the society.

This can be shown with our own behaviour, as kids imitate what the parents do.

As adults, it is difficult to outdo our nature, but kids can be easily molded.

Caring for others, not to force one’s thought onto others, respect for everyone’s point of view and speech, try to have empathy for others.

These are few things, if we try to imbibe and also teach it to the kids, will help us change the community in better way.

Speak against the injustice and not to keep mum when we see it’s happening to others are the major things to be practiced to make the community better.

The list can be unending, but if we just try to be KIND with our neighbours, the whole world would be happy.
