Choose your battles

I have been having a little bit of a struggle.

The thing is, I have a lot of passion that I was never able to channel into one single outlet. I have channeled it into school, AIESEC (youth empowerment), self awareness, self improvement.... but then I look at the world. 

Kids are dying. Poor people are dying. Hell, everyone is dying! There are unfair wages by companies in underdeveloped countries. Human rights being violated, human trafficking under our noses and environmental problems all around. There is hunger and war and so many things that I want to change about the world that I get.... overwhelmed. 

Yes, seems like a first world problem, that I am complaining about wanting to change too many things about the world. But it was truly overwhelming me, which led me to look for a solution. And that is when I ran into the following quote:

"Choose your battles." 

Now, this is what keeps me sane (most of the time) and focused on the cause that I care about the most. I still wish I could do something about everything, but I know that I can't. And just because I can't do everything, doesn't mean I shouldn't do anything. So I will keep choosing my battles. 

Beijos!
