I am really upset about the way the world is declining

Thanks a lot for that nice answer skyDancer. To be completely honest with you, I don't like Gandhi very much at all. I am an Indian but believe Gandhi was a racist who didn't want freedom just wanted the Brits out. Without them the country has become a third world nightmare. With the Brits in India I would be having a high standard of living in my own country rather than take the crap of the people in whose country I now live. Also one person being the change isn't enough. It has to be a whole lot of people working in unison. Hope that doesn't offend you or anyone. Just my views which I believe to be true.

To be honest, I know very little about Ghandi and colonial Indian. I just like that quote.

I completely agree that in order for systemic change to happen, larger groups of people do need to mobilize. However, even that begins at the individual level. :-)
