    I feel entirely powerless to affect change too. But then at times I guess it’s because the vast majority of people don’t see the world in the same way that I do, and so unless I can convince them that change is important, then isn’t going to happen.

    And how would I convince these people? How would I make them see the world in the way that I do? How do I communicate something that is so central to me but so subtle and peripheral to them? Why should they bother to listen?

    And the conclusion that I come to is that in a world where we are generally free to express ourselves, but are constantly fighting for attention, it is always going to be an uphill struggle; but it’s the only thing that I can do to change anything.

    Sorry that I don’t have an answer for you.
