So, today I was heading home from a course I take in the center of my city. It's an hour bus trip there and back, and on top of my normal education it's a thirteen hour day that leaves me completely drained.
But today, on the bus ride home, two guys got on the bus after me. They sat on the seat behind me and clearly didn't know each other. One of them commented on the other's shirt which was a Legend of Korra shirt. I really like the show so I turned around and said as much.
These two guys were then really cool and started talking to me about games, shows and some random topics for a good couple hours, even after we got off the bus.

And I don't know... the encounter just made me think, "this is the change I want to see in the world." I just said hi to two complete strangers, and we had a great conversation because of it. We all walked away smiling more than we were before hand. Personally, I want to be able to do that. I don't need to know someone's name, their age, their history. I just need them to talk, to have a genuine conversation because everyone will walk away feeling better, if only slightly.

Just, one word of greeting. That's the change I want to see in the world, the change I want to be in the world.
So I have a question for anyone reading this far. I want you to stop and truly think. Even if it's the most abstract or miniscule thing ever; from the bottom of your heart, what change in the world do you want to BE, do you want to see come to life before your very eyes.

Less problems with gossip and racism.. I have to live with both and I'd hate to be the person who opisthotonos lets things go.

Better communication dont just start a fight cuz the person your talking with says one thing you dont like were all different were going to have at least few things we dont agree on an its the little things dont get upset over a few little things chances are their still pretty cool

I want to be the voice of comfort and the one to ease any discomfort. It bothers me that people can be hurt for all the wrong reasons and nothing is done to help them. It may sound lame, but it's what I want to see happen.

>>6 and that's exactly why people give you shit. 9_9

>>1 Curious of where you found the picture, I looked around. Found that it came from here. But then I searched Google Images for "waiting at bus stop anime" and found something that'll destroy your childhood.

It's a random rant, forgive me

>>11 That is an awesome picture, tho (the link). Is it just a one-off or is it from a manga by any chance?

13 Name: NZPIEFACE : 2016-02-21 00:13 ID:x8Fx4yZY [Del]

>>12 A one-off I think, it was for the new year.
