In this world, there is no division between genders, sexuality, or race.

One action I am going to take in order to make a positive impact is that I want to be a more open person. I want to change my ways of thinking and my actions. I want to be more open-minded, patient, loving, and less judgmental.

I hope changing myself first can later influence the people around me and produce a spark in them to change themselves into a more positive human being. Especially in the time we are in now, I want to see more people hopeful, instead of looking into the negativity, start looking into the positivity.

No matter what situation we are in, we are in it together and there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.
