I carry these posts around in my head and heart until I finally take a moment to share them with you. Thanks to my new friend Ken, I just had to take a moment and put it down in writing. It has been with me for several days and just waiting for the “time” to put it down. Now is the time. It is through equitable motivation, encouragement and inspiration of each other that we all prosper. Not just in a financial sense, but in the sense of richness and fulfillment in life overl. Thanks Ken!
What I have realized more than anything in the world is that the world needs more LOVE! Every single person on this planet seeks and craves the love that meets their need at the deepest level of being. It is about MATTERING. Not even sure that is a word, but everyone wants to matter. Maybe there are some third world countries where food or water is an even greater need, but even within those, people seek CONNECTION with other human beings, and at least one significant other being in their lifetime. Our kids these days needs real, unconditional love. Our neighbors (globally and directly speaking) need love. Our partners, spouses, sisters, brothers, mothers, fathers, friends and EVEN THOSE WHO PERSECUTE US (especially) need love. True love could end wars, turf battles, political and emotional strife and all the issues that keep us from having true and real connection with each other. It is not about you or me, it is about the other guy or gal who needs a smile, a hug, a kind word, a word of encouragement. It is about RESPECT and being friendly, kind, caring and aware of those around you and how you can reach out to ease their burden. Imagine for a moment a world where everyone did this? Everyone’s load would become lighter, including YOURS! Wow! Even during these rough days, you can spare a smile, a kind word! If everyone would just try it and be more cognizant of the need for it and do better in trying to meet it in as many aspects of their life as possible, it would change the face of our society.
After reading about the Guinea worm in S. Africa*, it convicted me to try to identify at least THREE behaviors, that if people were directed to do them, it would change people’s lives for the better. The #1 behavior that I have identified is to LOVE more. Try it and see how it influences your world and the world around you for the better. “For the great of these is LOVE….”
To Your True Happiness!
