The Mysterious They

Blog post #60 of 365

Who is this mysterious "they"? We always hear "they" should do this or "they" shouldn't do that or "they" said this or "they" said that. The truth is if we want something done we need to do it. If we need something changed we need to change it.

Okay sometimes "they" refers to the government. Sometimes "they" refers to doctors. Sometimes "they" refers to administrators. Sometimes "they" refers to unions. There are a lot of "theys" out there and some we don't have a lot of control over but in truth we kind of do. We can write out public officials, vote, lobby etc. to change the government. We can change doctors or change our lifestyles to better take care of ourselves. We can change jobs, vote out union officials, or work to change laws regarding unions. There a lot of things we can do to become an active part of our own destiny.

The truth is we are "they" or "they" are us. It is time to quit whining about life and make changes. Okay so things might not happen right away but I seriously believe if we want to make a change or need something done we need to do it. It is a simple as that. We need to quit being a bystander and get active. Start small maybe. Pick your battles for sure. We need to stop laying blame and take responsibility.

Life is what you make of it so make the best life you can. Because we are the "they" that can change the world.
