"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." — Dr. Leonardo Buscaglia "For it is in giving that we receive." — St. Francis of Assisi "Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing." — Mother Teresa Every life matters. Everyone has value. Little things mean a lot.

This is a wonderful post!

After all, our thoughts are the only ones running through our head, and what we do throughout the day is the only thing we see. So, when we think of changing the world, we tend to look at it from perceptive of a megalomaniac. Hoards of people whispering to one another, pointing in our direction, 'is that him?', 'there he is...that is him!!!!!' Then we walk into the room like Bono, Tony Robbins, or the Dalai Llama, a rockstar in our own right. We own the crowd and their adoration. We are a demigod. Ok, so maybe you have no idea what I'm talking about, but that is what my personal view of "changing the world" first emerged as. Over time I've realized that concept was based in immaturity, ego, and too much TV. ;-) I like the pond & ripples analogy. Everything I do when coming in contact with another person has the ability to ripple through the lives of millions of people through the vessel of emotional contagion that can end up manifesting as a tidal wave - of love, jealousy, introspection, sarcasm, empathy, or courage - crashing on the shore of some tropical island half way around the world. But there will be no whispering crowds, and even if there were, in reality, it would probably just make me uncomfortable. Derek @ NüHabits Hey don’t we all have a little megalomania in us?

It will only drain you of your precious energy from doing things that do make a difference." I myself feel SO much better when I don''t focus on "What is" but simply on how I would like things to be! That is a so much better feeling isn't! thanks for your post Hi Mark I could not agree more witht he statment
