i am kinda a counter revolutionist.

we need change.
in fact, i am very prone to changes.
heck, i am a revolutionary type myself.

but i cannot stand it when people fight for their own rights, yet bring unneccessary discomfort to the other party.

hypocrisy disturbs me.

suppose party A discriminates against party B

so party B should stand up for their rights.

but when party B goes too far...

ever read Animal Farm?

that is the scenerio i am trying to prevent.

those who demand rights and yet do not want to take the neccessary responsibility... like people with a strong uranus(revolutionary), strong sun(ego), but a badly afflicted Saturn(no sense of responsibility)...

most people do not care for others unless it affects them. and they definitely do not care if that problem gives them more privileges.

sad.. so sad..

but i am glad that most people only do such things because they were merely ignorant.. not because of any malice..

though i do find the occasional person so full of hate...

Welcome apollo861!

Thank you for your insightful answer.

Yes, hypocrisy disturbs me as well. I have this annoying knack of being able to see all sides of an argument too, which tends to make it worse.

I have read Animal Farm, and know what you're saying. I'm unsure of the answers, though I ordain that the mists will clear from biased opinion. It's one of the worst things to come up against.

I wish you every success for the new year, apollo

Disagree with them. Glorify or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."

Hi all, bumping this one because I'm interested to know if anyone was thinking of embarking on a venture such as this? Unfortunately it's tough without the proper financial backing as I found out. I would love to attempt this again in my lifetime, it's just not feasable for me right now.

Do you know of anyone that has achieved a project with a charity or non-profit making organisation? Or are any of you teens making a path for it at an early stage in your life as opposed to a corporate career?
