Let’s Start the Wave That Changes Everything
It Only Takes a Few of Us to Rewrite the Story
I’ve been thinking a lot about how change actually happens.
It’s easy to picture it as some giant turning point — a new law, a viral moment, a shift so big that everyone can’t help but notice. But the more I pay attention, the less it looks like that.
Most of the time, it’s smaller.
It’s the people who get fed up enough to start planting a garden instead of waiting for the system to feed them better.
It’s a group of friends pulling together to build something new when the thing they had no longer makes sense.
It’s one person saying what everyone else is too afraid to admit — that this isn’t working, and we don’t have to keep doing it this way.
That’s usually how the real waves start.
Not because thousands of people signed up. Not because everything was figured out first. But because a few people decided they weren’t going to play along anymore.
I think about the last few years a lot. The cracks have been showing for a while now. The work grind that leaves people empty. The cities that drain more than they give.
The online “connections” that still leave us feeling isolated.
For a while, I thought everyone was just going to keep pretending. But lately, I see more people walking away.
It’s not the kind of change that makes headlines. But maybe that’s why it works. It’s slower. Less flashy. But it sticks.
We don’t need to wait for someone to fix the whole system. We don’t need to have the perfect plan. We just need a few people — you, me, whoever’s reading this — to decide that the old script is done and start writing a new one. Even if it’s small at first.
That’s how the wave starts.
So if you’ve been feeling it too — that pull to do something different, even if you don’t know where it leads — maybe this is your sign. It doesn’t take all of us. It just takes a few to get it moving.
Share this so we can spread the wave.
