We The People
August 27, 2017 ​by Bilal Sultan

Facing the future sounds scary. We do not know what will happen and for all we know, it could be disaster or utopia. But the future is what we live for. It is the most important thing in our lives, despite how unpredictable it is. Yet, there is one solution to make the future less fearful for all of us: facing it together and working together. We need to start thinking less along the lines of “me”, and more along the lines of “us”. There is a reason why all of us are here together and living this wonderful life in all sorts of emotions. Humans are social animals. Therefore, we should have more face-to-face contact, build new and greater relationships, and strengthen existing ones. It is in each handshake that each of us become more united with each other. With each word we speak, we change the world around us. Our identity is crucial and part of our life. We need to keep the story alive about each of our cultures and faiths. We cannot lose what is important to us. It is what tells what makes each of us unique. It is how we learn new things every day. It changes us to become what we are now. So, what does this mean in terms of what we have to do? We need to do is work together to change the future for the better. We the people will do what we need to change and create our own beautiful future. We the people will face this new future. We the people will fix the problems TOGETHER!
