Powerless

For most of us we experience a feeling of powerlessness in our lives.
.
Look around though and it can look different.
.
Times are a changing.
.
Climate change is more violent.
.
Life is going ever faster
.
The demands on us feel ever greater.
.
Many of our present structures are not working.
.
Not only that they are approaching meltdown.
.
Such a situation only comes along every few thousand years.
.
It is in such a time where you can throw off the feeling of powerlessness.
.
You can engage with the changes that are pushing to be felt.
.
You can also choose to just sit and watch.
.
In fact most will choose this option.
.
Seems a bit of a waste to just spectate at the amazing events unfolding.
.
But then this is why you feel powerless in the first place.
.
You have already decided that you cannot make a difference
.
You have accepted the idea that you can do nothing.
.
You accept what you are told.
.
Yet on a personal level if some friend tells you a load of rubbish you react
.
You tell them they are talking a load of rubbish.
.
So why can you not do the same for other things or situations in your life?
.
If the food in the restaurant is terrible tell them.
.
If the service is poor say so.
.
If the product does not perform as it should take it back.
.
Do not be a victim in your own life.
.
Walk through life standing up for what you believe.
.
For what is important to you.
.
These times are not normal.
.
There will be opportunities for you to be involved in those things you believe in and care about.
.
Do not let them pass you by.
.
Be brave step up and have your say.
