Could YOU change the world for the better?
Written by Lee Doyle on October 9, 2008 – 7:25 pmI was just on the phone with a good friend who has done some major things to change the way some people think. He has never changed the world but he has paved the way for hundreds of people to do so.
While I was talking to him I really had one of them moments where you realise that everyone who has changed the world was human and a person just like me or you.
We always sit down complaining about goverments or how things never change… But very few of us really do anything about it. We are all quite happy with just complaining while we let these things happen around us.
Many of us just think of things that are only in their own country and forget that we are all living in the same world and everything does effect us somewhere down the road.
(Take the USA arming the Taliban in the 80s and now they are at war fighting their own weapons)
We are all only just wakening up to fuel prices and weather changes… but they have been talked about for many many years. It is only when something is forced in your face when people really listen… The rest of the time things we see on the news or papers are just like the movies we see… As they are not effecting us or our wallets they just are not real.
When I first saw the person I was talking to I saw him on the news. I just shrugged off what he was saying as it was not effecting me right then… I never knew what he was going through and I never really cared… But if i did, and I did something then before it did effect me then maybe things would now be different? Well if everyone who saw this person on TV stood up and did something BEFORE it effected them or people they knew… well laws would change and millions of people would be happy now.
So back to my question.
Do you think YOU could change the world? Sometimes it is only very small changes that in the end make huge differences… Maybe some of the biggest world changing things we do not even know about… Because maybe they did change the world but as we never felt the bad things they changed maybe we just do not know.
While talking to guy (I cant mention his name but I am sure some of you know who he is) I really did feel that I was talking to someone who has effected peoples lives all over the world… I talk to people every day from around the world who are now following in his footsteps, and just one of these people could change laws in their own country thanks to this ONE person.
YOU could change the world… Its just do you have the guts?

Poem for my Children
Written by Lee Doyle on October 7, 2008 – 1:41 pmCan I put the feelings into these words of how much you mean to me?
I’ll try my best,
But I’ll never find the words as beautiful as thee,
I’ve sat here for months and months trying to write my feelings down,
While trying to write,
And make you proud,
Without sounding like a clown,
Your my children,
and I love you to death,
and I wish I could tell you that,
All i get is these few words and page you might not see,
What I’d give for a tiny chat,
I’ve wrote so many letters to you that might not see the light of day,
But I hope you know how much I love you all,
Telling you like this is my only way,
I have so many plans, dreams, all saved up inside of my head,
But right now the only time I get to dream of these days,
is when I’m asleep in my solo bed,
I know one day it will all end,
and then times will not be so bad,
But till that day i’ll keep writing all these things down,
to remember the times so sad,
These times are so bad,
but they serve for good use,
to show whats important to me,
Its made me so strong,
Its made me a man,
Now its my children I only see,
I have wrote so many poems for my children. Most are half writen as I can never get my feelings out when I write about them. Most of the time I have to pretend that I have no children as it is my only way of coping… The times I do think about them are the times I now use as fuel to keep me going.
I wish I could get my feelings out more… But sometimes the real importent things that you love unconditionally are the hardest things to talk or write about. For this I am truly sorry to my children… I hope you do not think I am not thinking about you as I do….
Love Dad
