THINK BIG…………….The thing that we sometimes forget
is that it is not really Superman that is the hero, its Clark Kent – the
ordinary man that does extra-ordinary things and its not only super heroes that
have the power to bring great change but ordinary people that have the power of imagination necessary to
visualize greatness.We ladies and gentlemen, are those ordinary people!
When you
think of it, many humble people have brought great change to the world Mother Teresa,
imagined a world with out poverty, When her tiny frame walked thought the
squatter camps amongst some of the worlds poorest people in the slums of
Calcutta, she must have truly seemed like a superhero coming to save the day
even if it was just her habit blowing in the wind and then there was the cattle
herder, Nelson Rolelala Mandela, he became a President and brought healing to
a troubled nation. His plight started because he dared to imagine a world with
out racialism and prejudice. Closer to home, we have Edith Cowen; she was Australia’s first woman elected to
public office in 1920, Edith, rose
above a tragic childhood and defied social order by imagining equal rights for
all women in Australia and every-time some one is lucky enough to pull out a fifty
dollar note her portrait on the
bill acts as a reminder that change is possible. And all of these people had
the power to imagine a better world not for them personally but for mankind and
they became the change they wanted to see in the world.
