Change the World
Everyone should try. Get your hands dirty. Cradle an AIDS baby, help dig a well for a remote village, hug as many old people as you can (they won’t be here much longer), leave a legacy of kindness and generosity.
When you hear people say, “They’re homeless ‘cuz they want to be,” or “She doesn’t work because she collects welfare,” or “They are always killing each other so just let them,”…you should feel sorry for them. These are people who have lost hope, these are people who have given up on life, these are people who are close to giving up on themselves.
Remember, I was going to write a letter a day. I’ve revisited this. Once a week is a more realistic goal.
I promise that if you live your life caring for the welfare of others especially in the face of personal gain, it will come back to you.
I promise.
