For the Times They Are A-Changin’: Finding Our Fearless Voice Within

By Gerry VISCA,#whyguy

There’s a haunting truth in Bob Dylan’s words: “For the times they are a-changin’.” Spoken decades ago, yet they still echo through the corridors of our modern lives. The world continues to shift — in ways big and small, visible and invisible. The weather rages, economies falter, technology races ahead, and uncertainty becomes the undercurrent of our every day.

And yet… there are things we simply cannot change.

We can’t control the winds of the world, the passing storms, or the outer circumstances that often feel like they’re steering the ship. But what we can change — what we must change — is the direction we steer within ourselves.

In this space of inner truth, we are called to listen.

Not to the noise of the world. Not to the fear or doubt or distraction. But to the one sound that truly matters — the whisper of the heart. The calling of the soul. The fearless voice that knows who we are and why we’re here.

For me, this inner journey has become not just a path — but a purpose.

I’ve found deep fulfillment in pouring my energy into what I can influence: the world of philanthropic publishing. Sharing the stories that matter. Extracting the deeper why behind everyday people doing extraordinary things. Publishing not just for profit — but for purpose. For impact. For truth.

Because while we may not be able to calm every storm outside us, we can become the calm within the storm.

• We can elevate voices that remind others of who they are — before the world told them otherwise.

• We can choose to create, to serve, to contribute.

• We can choose to be the change the times are calling for.

And perhaps, that is the truest response to a world forever shifting: not resistance, but reverence. Not control, but consciousness. Not fear, but a fierce return to the sound of our own soul.

So when you feel like the world is spinning too fast — pause. Breathe. Listen.

Because the times are a-changin’ — and maybe, just maybe, they’re waiting for you to rise.
