Change we believe in - Obama
there is so much talk about change, wanting to change this and that, can we change this rule? what is the rationale? the feedback from the ground is this, so can we change to that?
I think before we talked abt change, it would be better to explore all options and find out what are the root causes, instead of jumping straight into solution providing mode. because what is perceived as solution might just be easing the symptoms in the short term, but in the long run, it might cause more deep-rooted problems and issues.
I just wanna quote from Obama, in one of his speeches,
" change....politics of cynicism or politics of hope,... this is not meaning of change...
it is about the meaning of hope, and hope is not blind optimism, not ignoring the anomality of task before us or that road blocks standing before us ... has the judgement and courage to ask the hard questions... hope have been the guiding force behind the most improbable changes made..." Check out the speech in full.
Change needs time.
Ask Hard Questions.
