Want to Change the World?

I know most of us have this idea of a perfect world that we want to live in. We see various environmentalists, social workers, thinkers debating alike that the world is going crazier and the future generations will have it all bad. And the overdose of media and news channels in trying to convince all the people about this bad world doesn't help either.
All these social issues, climate changes, new innovations have always been there in this world - even before human beings evolved.
The temperatures on earth have been changing from very hot to ice-like. Life has evolved from single cells to dinosaurs to human beings.
During the human history, there have always been wars, politics, development of new tools and the rise and fall of different empires/cultures.
Each one of those phases has had its share of turmoil. Which one of those phases do you think is the perfect one?
What if the one you thought was perfect didn't really turn out to be that good?
I think the best way to change the world is to change how you see it.
There will always be issues and problems in everyone's life and in this world. And changing the way we see things doesn't mean we don't care about anything. It just means we don't worry unnecessarily and  just do our part while living completely and fully for NOW - not for some ideal, imaginary world but just for this present moment.
