Why Eight Billion Worlds?
"Everyone wants to change the world, but no one wants to change themselves."
-Leo Tolstoy
Eight Billion Worlds is...
the personal project and philosophy of Dylan Bigelow. It is the recognition that the only way to change the world is by first changing ourselves. Each of us filters the world through our experiences, our emotions, our thoughts. Because of this, each of us lives in our unique version of the world. There is no one objective world waiting for us to find it, to change it. Instead, what we think of as "the world" is simply the network of eight billion individual worlds all acting upon and interacting with one another. By changing ourselves, we can change the way we experience our world and the ways it impacts others. So, if you truly want to change the world, start with the only thing you can change: yourself. The world will follow.
