Should we accept what happens in the World, or try to make a difference?

"We are all visitors to this time, this place. We are just passing through. Our purpose here is to observe, to learn, to grow… and then we return home"

This is an Aboriginal proverb. These are wonderful words. They have a unique grace that really resonates for a lot of people. How about you... how about me?

I see the beauty of these words, I appreciate the timeless grace they invoke but... the passivity, the disinterest, the apparent acceptance that an individual cannot make a difference - is something that jars with me.

Do you have a view?  Tell me...
