Making a Positive Impact
Who's world is it anyway? What have you done to make a difference? What impact have you made in "someone" life? Is it a selfish thing to be on this earth and only think about yourself? What kind of morals are you showing if you are self-centered? One should be selfless and do what is right not only for themselves but for others. Sometimes when you think about others, you show how caring you are and make an impact. Lead by example, inspire others to do good. We are all living in this world and it would be a much better place if we were doing the right thing. I want my son to live in a better world then I grew up in. I want him to live trying to make good, honest decisions. I want him to feel good about doing for others. We volunteer a few times a year. One of his favorite places to volunteer is a place that makes care packages for the deployed military. We have been wanting to volunteer on thanksgiving day but he has not been old enough. I hope we can this year or next. I also try to have him do small things when he can. I tell him that you don’t do something expected someone to do something for you in return. He helps an elderly couple down the street with their trashcans. He is one of the oldest kids on the block so he usually acts like a "big brother" to the smaller kids. It's fine to think about yourself once in a while. Go ahead and have a "me" day. But you can live a richer life in you don't live in "your world" but live in a world shared by everyone.
