Imagine a social or personal change that hasn’t happened yet, but you would like to see the change happen in the future. The change can be something that you want to happen in your life or that you'd like to see happen in society. Discuss with others why you think the change is interesting or necessary and what role you see yourself playing. Is it a change that you think you could actively pursue, or do you think you would be more of a bystander? Additionally, discuss changes that others might want to see occur and how those changes are different or similar to your own ideas.
