“I want to be part of the solution not part of the problem ”
— Russell Brand
Simplified Meaning:
When someone says they want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem, they mean they want to help fix an issue instead of making it worse. Think about when there's a mess in a kitchen, and everyone’s just standing around complaining. If you decide to start cleaning up instead of just talking about the mess, you're helping solve the problem. In history, people who see something wrong and take action to make it better are seen as part of the solution. For example, during civil rights movements, individuals who peacefully protested and pushed for laws to change unfair treatment were trying to solve a big societal problem. If you face a disagreement with a friend, instead of arguing or ignoring the issue, trying to talk it through calmly and finding a way for both of you to feel understood is another way of being part of the solution. This idea encourages people to be active helpers in their communities, workplaces, or families, putting effort into finding and creating positive changes rather than contributing to problems or passively watching them unfold.
