Is Change Good or Bad?

Is Change Good or Bad

            Is change good or bad? Change is Inevitable. When change happens it is natural like globalization or when a country will change their government to progress through development. But there are also bad and forced forms of change. When a military takes over the country and forces it into a dictatorship or completely destroys the culture of the society. But change is mostly inevitable by what happens naturally.

            When change is good it will help out or remodel a culture or even the environment for that matter. It could be a climate change which makes the area have to adapt to the new temperature. Or as I said before it could change the government and the society of a region to move farther up into the developmental stages. When this kind of change happens it can only benefit a society. There are also changes in the way we live in general. First we have clothing styles and the way we talk.  Second there is how we act around others and what the cool thing to do is. Sometimes the second way of changing is not always good since many people have different interpretations. For instance, there is underage drinking that is a huge problem in the United States and the rest of the world. There is also the concept of drugs and how people use them even though they are not even illegal. Another form of good change is that How England came to America and colonized here. Without this we would not have the United States. But within that you have the concept of the many wars that came with this change. For instance, there is the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812 where the Star Spangled Banner was written. This poem was then turned into a song and became our national anthem. As the years progressed we did not have many issues with slaves and having them do our work for us. Under Lincoln we established the Emancipation Proclamation act that forbids any area of the United States to have slaves. Lincoln was then killed by John Wilkes Booth. Through all of this we made a huge change in the way that we live our lives today. Later on Martin Luther King had a dream, that white people and black people could be created equal under one roof. He protested in a nonviolent way and was then shot just as Lincoln was, on a balcony and fighting for our rights. I have given you a basic run down on how one change led to another and then another to make a good outcome in result. But when you look at life this happens in everyday, all around the world. Change is a good thing as long as it is not for the wrong reason. When you look at how everything happens due to one rupture in our lives then you know that change is supposed to happen on a regular basis.

            Now I am going to tell you how change is a bad thing. Change can be forced into creating something that no one will like but it will be solved through strict discipline and fighting for a better change. When we look at when Britain came to America again. Who was here first? The answer to that are the Native Americans that fought for their right to live on their homeland when we forced them into obliteration. Why is it that Human Beings have to revolve around violence and power? This is because we are the Dominant species on this planet and have to overthrow whatever gets in our way. While England was overthrowing the Native American Civilizations through warfare and hate, Spain and other countries were doing the same to the natives of other areas of North America. Spain overthrew many ancient civilizations in what we know as Mexico now. They brought slaves and diseases and what did we get out of this? We got nothing other than more land to fight over. We have had many wars inside of our own country as well that are still being debated on whether they were worth it or not. But without these we cannot learn how to prevent the horrible things that will end up happening to good people. But what we can do is prevent changes that will have a negative effect on our lives. I have now told you some of the historical changes through time but the real element that will come through bad change is the fact that everyone is affected in a way that has been destroying our cultures for decades. Our Government is not doing well with the economy and the wars that have been going on for a while now. What are we getting out of those wars other than dead soldiers that have left their families behind to serve their country when there s no country to serve anymore? As Human we go through changes on a regular basis. We could go through a change where it just makes us want to destroy everything that means the most to us and everything worth living for.

            Change happens on an everyday basis and can be guided to a better outcome. As change happens we start to mature and learn more about was has been and what might be. But what about what already is? Change effects the present and the future. But change can never effect the past because the past cannot be erased. Everyone will remember 911 and the devastating earthquake in Haiti. But when it comes down to the whole picture there is nothing we could have done to stop that besides grow from it and make changes to how you go about loving our lives and helping others. Change is inevitable. It will never stop happening and it could always have a positive or negative effect on our live. You just have to look at it and determine if it was a change or a replay of something that has already happened.
