Chapter 64
The message that Will had broadcast to every tv set received mixed reviews, to say the least. The vast majority of people brushed it off, one way or another. There were some who couldn’t comprehend the meaning of what was said. Others could see how it might be true, but felt it was impossible to make such things happen in the real world. “people are stupid” or “people don’t care” or “not in my lifetime” were excuses people used to convince themselves that inaction was ok. Another excuse used was “I just want to enjoy myself and not worry about it” or “I’m too small to effect anything”. Too many excuses and zero reasons.
However, it was a small, miniscule portion of the population who were drawn to know more and to take action, little by little. Curiosity led some, determination others, love, care, courage, and desire were catalysts for all. It was a message which transcended artificial divisions and barriers between race, color, creed, religion, political affiliations, and any and all other superficial splits between people. Why? Because it was the truth, and the truth is for everyone.
It was people like University Student 6060 and Divine School Official 9003 who wept with joy at that message of truth, took it to heart, and initiated their journey by contacting Will. It was small, individual actions such as these that were essential to creating a better future.
