You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

I love dreaming.And I madly believe that all dreams come true.Just look at the sky.The whole universe conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work on following the dream.I’ll never forget the day that my dream came true and I touched the sky.It happened on 20th of August 2012 and it changed my life completely.I remember saying good-bye to my parents in the airport of Boryspil (Kiev, Ukraine) and I recall that feeling of being alone and free from everything.This was the first time ever I had to sit on the plane. I didn’t know anybody in the airport,I didn’t know what was going to happen to me when I would land in the place of my destination – Dusseldorf, Germany. And the main thing is that I didn’t want to know. I was desperate for adventures!I remember my sitting near the window and while taking off I dropped my eyes on the clouds.It is hard to explain the whole beauty which emerged from the tiny window of that plane. Being there I was thinking how small we really are in comparison with the immense world.How often we do not think about others, about nature, but only care for ourselves, how much value do we put on material and how less spiritual is left in our hearts. But the sky was always above us and it will always remain there.Life is just permanent impermanence and we have to live it the way we want.I declare that we should abandon our offices, houses and start a journey.Discover world with all its strangeness,learn different languages,meet people of different cultures and feel like being part of their nation, part of them.I call everyone to live the real life!I remember my coming out of terminal and seeing a big poster saying: "MARINA WELCOME TO GERMANY!" from my host sisters.I never knew these people who were about to become my second family,but I hugged all of them with such a deep feeling of love and appreciation.And it was the time when I grasped that each person is unique and special and there is so much good in each of us.We are just like stars:the sky is filled with us, but we are mostly stay invisible by day.The truth is that there are no good men, or bad men. Men are just men-it is what they do, or refuse to do, that links them to good or evil. To conclude,now I know that every journey alters and transforms our worldview as well as our world perception.We should always keep in consideration that we can change the world within changing ourselves first.I believe that if one always looked at the skies, one would end up with wings.
