i think that she's saying that we are quick to note all the negative that's occurring throughout the world, yet we aren't addressing our own problems at home, whatever they may be. once we choose to better ourselves and the people around us, then we, as a world community, can work towards a greater common good globally. one of my professors once said, "no one can live forever, it simply isn't possible. but what you can do is influence others. and that will live on eternally." i think this is so true. it's the whole pay it forward theory/movement. karma is so real, and how you treat and influence others will come right back to you. instead of complaining about how bad the world is, make it better by fixing broken relationships, thinking before speaking, and following your heart. i know i went off on a major tangent here, but i think that if everyone bettered themselves individually, the world would be a better place.
