daddy told me not to involve myself in politics...

My dad is so right, I think you don't have to be involved in politics to make a difference, offcourse if the government is behind you that's a plus, but I think most of us wait around for the government to decide if they are going to help us or not, and by that time we have wasted precious time.
Today we went to a meeting with our Prime Minister, from Tanzania, and he spoke about all the improvements of the country and how well they are doing. A lot of people I feel have concerns and complain a lot about their governments but they don't personally do anything to change their environment.
I'm always really careful to blame governments because governments are built by people without the people there is no government, I don't know if people forget that their governments are supposed to work for them or not, who knows, but I just know I can't wait for my government to fix everything single problem in my community, not only is it unrealistic but it's also impossible. I can't as an individual wait for my government to change anything if I'm not willing to participate in that change. There is so much we can do as individuals, and that's the only way we can have perfect governments, when each person takes responsibility for theirs, it's only way. Until then we will blame, blame and blame our governments.
