In the last few days we discussed at class about different types of sociology. Sociological Imagination and Sociological Mindfulness. The one I chose to talk about is Sociological Mindfulness that is when you as a one can influence the world. With this way of thinking people try to find an answer how to make the world a better place for the one they love for example: it can be for their families, friends, and etc.... To make this life for a better place for the one they love I would like to use a quote that we heard in one of the videos that we watched at class: "one voice can change a room. And if it can change a room, it can change a city; and if it change a city it can change a state and if it can change a state, it can change a nation and if it can change a nation, it can change the world." The thing I'm trying to say if you didn't understand the meaning of the quote is to change the life of a person can start with a really tiny thing that you do for him or for the community to make the world a better place. The way that people can make it realistic comes in many ways and shapes of contribution some of the examples are show at school like bake sale, or Ugive club. Also it can be by serve the low class like homeless people that need a shelter, food, cloth, etc... all of this examples are ways that people help for a better world. My impact on society started just last semester when I gave 10 hours of my life for an organization that calls Making Strides. This organization change my life and thought me how important is to give for other that don't live life like you do. Now I want to go back for the term Mindfulness because my experience is a little bit different. As I said in my first post I moved from Israel for a better life both of my parents decided to make this change for their 3 children for better education, better life style, more option to succeed in life because in Israel it is really hard to accomplish your dreams and that is their legacy, but now I need to start my legacy and as you know each person choose to give from himself in a different way, so I'm now considering to go back to Israel to give 3 years of my life that maybe will help to change the world for a better life for my children that I will have in the future, and I hope they will accomplish who they want to be in their own legacy.

I like how you incorporated the "one voice can change a room" quote. Good post!
ReplyDeleteIt's cool the way you incorporated the community service into the topics we spoke about in class. Good examples!
ReplyDeletegreat post, Ran. Your explanation is accurate and your example is a good one. Nice job applying the concept to your experience in community service. When you return to Israel will it be to serve in the IDF?
