power

i have immense power. i have the ability to influence the flow of conversations and thus steer people's trains of thought. even if i am objective, observing, i may have stimulated ideas in a person's mind that they may harbour privately. i think one of the most beautiful aspects of people is our way of unknowingly leaving parts of ourselves to grow in different places and different people. sometimes these fragments blossom and flower. sometimes they don't. it's so mad. this realisation of my force is almost frightening. what can i do with it? change the world? hopefully. but changing the world is one complex concept cos change must first start within, then be externalised, gradually. that's probs the hardest part of it tho cos who wants to be patient when they're so conditioned to believe in immediacy as a measure of something's effectiveness...
