31 Quotes To Inspire You To Make A Positive Difference In The World

    How do you want to make a difference? By being just who you're or by changing yourself to blend in? No matter what you choose, it's important. Please know that even a tiny effort can make a biggg difference in the world; can create a ripple effect of finding "good" everywhere. 

    I'm led by the passion, the purpose, and the honesty of changing myself and everything else around me for a good reason. "I wish to be the change, I would like to see in the world." And it cannot be possible if I am not being hundred percent honest with myself!
