Can You Change Someone??

One of the biggest flaws about me is that I want to be able to change the world. I want to be able to change people. Now that task I know is impossible. But It is possible to change some. Some of the world. Some people. I truly believe that. It's just are you strong enough and willing enough to do that. I believe that you can change people for the better. You will fail at times just like anything in life. I thought, I truly deep down in my heart that I could change my dad. I thought that I had the power to change the way he thought about life and could make him happy again. I thought maybe just being with him more, writing letters and notes to him of words that he probably has never heard before, that would inspire him and show him that life isn't just about everything he thought it was, it's about love, peace, happiness. I thought that I could safe is life. I was wrong. I couldn't. I tried everything in my power or close to everything and it just wasn't enough I guess. I will think about that everyday of my life but there honestly was nothing I could do. But I do believe that I changed my ex girlfriends life. I think I showed her that there are people out that that believe in you. There are people out there that care enough to see where you are going in life and how you get there. I think I made her happier than she has ever been and that life is worth living for. I showed her that she isn't just a hot girl that I wanted to hook up with and make her feel worthless. I showed her what true love is about. I showed her that this is how you should be treated and how life is supposed to be. I do believe that if I hadn't come into her life she wouldn't be where she is today. I don't know where she would be. But by trying to change peoples lives they also change yours. Those two peoples lives that I tried to change changed my life forever. I wouldn't be the man I am today if I hadn't been with my dad as much as I was trying to make him a better person. He made me a better person in the process and showed me what was important in life too. She changed my life by making me the happiest I have ever been with someone while being in the toughest part of my life. She showed me that one person can make you happy without even saying a word. But just by being there and knowing that they are right there when you fall. Everyday I try to change some ones life. Whether it is as small as someone wanting to lose some weight to gain their confidence and energy back. or if it is someone that just needs someone to listen to them and maybe give them some advice. I do believe that If you can TRY to change peoples lives you can change some of the world. All someone needs is for that one person to come to them and believe in them and help them change their life for the better. If you can do that go for it because it will change the world.
