I hope these thoughts give you something to ponder while you enjoy your morning beverage. As you go about your day, I invite you to take some time to reflect on your observations. Consider if there’s anything you can do to enhance your life, such as looking into the mirror and appreciating yourself. You may also find a way to make the world more beautiful with a simple act of kindness, like holding the door open without expecting a thank you. You may also want to consider if you have a gift to share with the world. Perhaps you have some untapped talent you may regret wasting, as we sometimes do with unused towels or our good china. I hope you find them enjoyable and return for more tomorrow.
Voice
Everyone has a voice, and we all deserve to be heard.
With our voices, we can create a beautiful world. At the same time, some may use their influence to create chaos in our world.
Some believe theirs is the only opinion others should listen to and that they have the right to hurt others if they disagree. These are the voices that can destroy our beautiful planet.
When we don’t speak up against them, evil can prevail. While it can be scary to speak up when we see something wrong, we must use our voices to help humanity. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing.” Attributed to Edmund Burke.
Our voices are meant to be heard, not shouted over or quieted. Even the ones who believe they are who the world should listen to have a right to speak. However, they do not have the right to demand that they be the only influence.
Therefore, we must be diligent in how we speak and use our influence to help, not harm, humanity.
Today’s challenge:
Use your voice for kindness and compassion.
