Change

                                                                  waiting for change?

There's this song by John Mayer, 'Waiting on the World to Change'. At first, I loved the song. I loved the beat, and the lyrics. But the more I listened to the lyrics of the song, the more discontented I was. Here's why:

"Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood 
They say we stand for nothing 
There's no way we ever could 
Now we see everything is going wrong 
With the world and those who lead it 
We just feel like we don't have the means 
To rise above and beat it 
 
So we keep waiting (waiting) 
Waiting on the world to change 
We keep on waiting (waiting) 
Waiting on the world to change 
Its hard to be persistant 
When we're standing at a distance 
So we keep waiting (waiting) 
Waiting on the world to change "

We should not wait. Instead, we should be the ONEs who will change the world! 
Change the world? First, change Singapore.
Change Singapore? First, change the youths.
Change the youths? First, change the schools.
Change the schools? First, they need God.

Agree?
