Nobel

By: Gabriela Yareliz

Alfred Nobel is known for the Nobel Peace Prize— the Swedish chemist also invented dynamite. ⚡️

Perhaps lasting peace is only possible by those willing and ready to create a destructive explosion— maybe this is the only way it has integrity. Otherwise, it is just cowardice or an inability to act with a side of built up resentment. A postponed reaction, if you will.

As I have been reading Originals by Adam Grant, it seems it’s the disagreeable, those willing to confront and start fires with their personalities that become the greatest advocates and channels for change.

We shouldn’t lose our dynamite. Sometimes, the spark of dynamite is the path to a better tomorrow.
