Fear is a compelling emotion that drives our everyday lives, paralyzing individuals on their path to complete even the most mundane of tasks.

This happens to everyone on the first try but we keep trying again until finally we can walk and then eventually run. Often I find myself asking what if I didn’t take this first step because of fear? This seems unimaginable but the more I think about it a lot of us are hesitant

December 9, 2012 was the day I was abducted by a nameless man who placed a firearm by my head and threatened to pull the trigger if I didn’t abide to his orders, and I thank him for it.

“I’m like everybody is sitting in the park, like they are watching to see if I’m doing my job, if am actually working…. As far as I’m concerned you guys [my group and I] are spies too…” The aforementioned comments are from Dawn, a white female in her third month of a six-month employment program, a “green shirt” wearing park worker. Our group met Dawn while she was sweeping along the outer western park sidewalk along with her more timid coworkers. Why does Dawn think that a group of college students are spies? The “green shirt” park workers are employees of New York City. Their duty is to clean and maintain the park and its facilities (NYC Parks). However, many parkgoers fear the workers of Washington Square Park. Confused?

The spark of revolution is implanted in the minds of people by people who want change... but not everybody wants change. People want to follow a routine. “So [they] beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.” It’s what keeps the world in order, for the most part. Of course, there will always be people that step out of ‘normal’ boundaries. There are a few individuals, that when stepping out of the norm, changed history with inventions. There are others that plunged the world into war. That’s how the world changes. Without those people, the world would be stagnant. With too many of those people, the world would be too chaotic to handle. Wars would be fought everywhere.
