Be the Change!

You must be the change you want to see in the world - Mahatma Gandhi

 

Relationships and cooperative action can effect our environment. For instance you don’t have to like somebody, you just have to be nice to improve your environment.

Smile! It's an easy way to brighten someone's day, and it will lift your spirits as well. And don't just limit your beautiful smile to those you know, smile at people you go to work or school with and at people you don't even know. See for yourself how contagious a genuine smile can be! http://thinksimplenow.com/happiness/the-art-of-smiling/

Volunteer! Another way to be the change is to volunteer. Helping others is a great way to make the world a better place! Check out http://www.volunteermatch.org/ to find an organization in your area and get started!

Be there for others! Take time and ask your close friends and family how they are doing, and really listen to the answer. Even if you take just a few minutes out of your day and give them some focus, they will feel better knowing you are there for them.

These are just a few ideas I thought I would share. I would love to hear ways that you are making a difference!

Great Reminder

Thanks Holly, those are some uplifting simple reminders. I have found that combining traveling and volunteering has changed my life- there are an infinite number of ways to go to another country to teach or take classes or do internships which can benefit you in your practice or studies and also help other people, while giving you a safe convenient way to travel.
