Our world can be quite crazy at times. Chaotic. Mad and muddled. It can be a place of tumult.
Those of us who care about this place need to stay settled and resolved.
Come to terms with this truth.
Every day gives us dozens of chances to leave the world a little better than we found it.
As human beings, we possess extraordinary power. With that power comes responsibility. Even the smallest choices and actions can create lasting change, for better or for worse. The way we conduct ourselves in the world matters more than we may ever realize.
We have a responsibility to recognize the influence we hold and to use it with intention, integrity, and compassion. Accepting that responsibility is not an extraordinary calling.
No. Instead, it is one of the most ordinary, essential, and urgent duties of being human.
Be human today.
Choose kindness.
Offer compassion.
Dare to be good.
