There are certain topics that I am very passionate about. These include confidence-building, relationships, children, faith, poverty, injustice, violence. It breaks my heart when I read about people hurting other people, especially when it comes to children. Every day I hear something that brings a tear to my eyes and sends pain through my heart. People can be so cruel to each other and even to themselves. Where is all the love and compassion?
- We need to examine our lives and figure out what we can do to help people instead of hurt them.
- We need to watch our words carefully and think before we speak.
- We need to stop ourselves before we do anything that we might regret later.
- We need to put ourselves in the shoes of others and try to understand who they really are instead of making a quick, incorrect judgment.
- We need to support, love and pray for each other.
People often think they can’t do much to change the world by themselves but if we can do just one small thing it can have a ripple effect. We might never see the end result when we show kindness to another person. Just a few encouraging words spoken to someone who is broken and defeated can lift them up and help them make positive changes in their lives.
The world is so full of anger, hatred, violence and despair. We need to do what we can to stop this negativity from growing by showing love to everyone around us. What are you doing to change the world?
