That's one small candy wrapper for a man, one giant leap backwards on environmental impact

I have been preaching to my family most especially to my wife how important it is to be responsible in everything, everywhere and to everyone. I also often emphasize how a small act of goodness and or righteousness can change the world.

My wife and i went outside at 11PM to buy some ice, she bought also a small piece of chocolate/candy.  on our way back, i saw her drop a small piece of wrapper, i asked her if i was correct in seeing her drop off a little piece of wrapper like it was nothing, and she concede.  ofcourse that's my time again to preach how small things can change the world.  she got mad at my lecture yada yada yada.

Ok, me talking to myself, self i think it's time for a reality check. "Do you lost consider yourself successful in evangelizing the whole world on how the world should be?", well you can't even influence your other half how come you want to change the world then.

at that point i am lost again, hopeless, depressed, ...there is no way this world will ever change to the better. people are so lax. my wife's excuse is that it was only a small piece of wrapper and it was her first time to do that. judging by the chemical composition of the wrapper it is a sturdy plastic wrapper that i think will decompose in 100 years time, if all people of this world would do the same, i think that there would be a lot of garbage that will be collected everyday, everyday people throwing their first garbage!

i'm back to my poor old lost soul again, with no sign of hope. i'm a failure, can't even influence my own wife.

small can be powerful, once can be a multiplier. Good luck to us all.

Responsiblity is the ability to take charge of the future.

I'm lost...i hope i could have influenced you in some way.
