This is a difficult world at times. We travel at breakneck speed and often forget to see the people around us or take time to find out what is going on in the lives of people who are very near and dear to us. People are under stresses from every side...relationships, finance, occupations...the list goes on.
Today, let's stop for a moment. Look around you and try to see what at least one person is dealing with in his or her life. Then offer them a kind word or gesture. A helping hand is very powerful. Feel free to post your experience below. Your sharing of your experience helps us all.
Todd,
ReplyDeleteYou are so right on noting the stress of everyday life. Job situations, family obligations and community involvement plays an integral role in our professional and humanitarian well being. Being able to balance all takes an instrumented well being from within. But we can all do it.
My Pappy died in 2010 at the age of 93. I think about his life and his legacy everyday. He was a WWII Vet, Proud Father, husband, Grandpa, upstanding citizen, business man and my mentor.
Maybe I strayed from the topic, but in a nutshell, we all have to thank those kind of people when you see/talk to them. May be hard to recognize them. Never be disrespectful of elders....you never know the path they have taken.....RIP all that walked before us to give us all the Freedom we have right now.
