See you're still young enough to think that you can get people to see things your way. I used to think that all the time so I know where you're coming from. Then I had a professor who showed me a completely different side of things. He said if I put 1/4 the energy I was spending on persuasive arguments on actually pushing a positive message and making change, I would be one powerful woman. It turns out he was right! Now instead of seeing all the things that are wrong in the world, I see all the things that I can work to change.

Now stop making me feel old with your youthful indignation!
