The American Way

Can we change the American way of life? Are the values and ideas of America so interwoven with intense capitalism and stubborn individualism that change is impossible? It would seem that the possibility of change is not possible without detaching collectively from questionable values.However, the question remains what does it mean to change our world? Is it the act of simply changing our condition or does it require more? I am convinced that the changing of our condition must be connected to the changing conditions of others. We must view our lives in concert with the predicament of others and there struggle must become our struggle. It is a difficult life to embrace but I can see no other way to find peace. For me, peace must be attached to the calming influence that comes with embracing the struggle and seeking liberation for the masses. Let's Get Free!
