My thoughts in this blog post are inspired by the excessive commenting going on right now on Facebook. So many of us are commenting about the upcoming election and the changes that will happen depending on who is elected. I am not about to give my personal opinion on who I support but I do want everyone to think about what I am going to say.
Many of us don't realize how much of a change one person can make, and I am not talking about the President when I say "one person". I am talking bout YOU. Vote for whoever you believe holds your values, but remember that the change can come from you. Either way, the President can only do so much, really. I believe YOU can do more than the President.
So, what I ask of you all that read this is to 1.) share it :) 2.) make a difference.
Make a difference? Me? No way! I can't do that! How? When? I don't have time!
I know, I know...this is where I was 2 years ago. The answer is simple, it truly is.
Pick one family you want to help in your neighborhood because there is ALWAYS someone who has less than you no matter how little you believe you have. Choose one homeless person holding a cardboard sign and buy them a $10.00 bag of groceries. Whatever your good deed may be it really doesn't matter. The point is to spread the love. Whether it's to a family, a person, or to the environment by cleaning up a park...JUST DO IT.
This is how we become the change we want to see. Everyone can find a passion for something no matter how small or how big. Your personal passion can change one person's outlook which just snowballs into goodness. There is so much YOU can do. Go to the cancer unit or burn unit at a children's hospital and volunteer your time. The possibilities are endless.
The ultimate point to this post is to believe in what YOU can do and trust in YOURSELF to make changes. Leave the small stuff to the President and do something big.
Always Believe
