I have lost many things important to me throughout my life.
There are specific things that if I lost... I would not know what to do.
How many times a day, do we really stop and think about how lucky we truly are.
A wise man once said:
"For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Our lives are full of many time consuming task's. We have all drove, or walked past a homeless person.
What do you do? Do you stop?
It breaks my heart to think that I spent majority of the time complaining, when I do have a home. I get to eat dinner every night. I get to crawl in my bed at the end of the night and fall asleep. I get to have my daily showers.. When there are people out there who can't.
You know the moment when you shake a man's hand and look in to his eyes and you can tell when he is really down on his luck.
Life isn't fair..
But yes, yes you!
You can make a difference.
When you get the opportunity, pay it forward.
What have you got to loose.
I came across a few pictures.
Under it, the man said he ran in to a man.
Frank, that was not his real name.
"Frank", had just picked up something on the ground, probably a coin. How much does that suck to see him hobble along with a single crutch.
Look how busy we all are. We overlook the little things that mean the most!
It was baffling to read this, how sad I was!
The man asked if he could take some pictures.
He was very kind about it.
The first thing "Frank" told the man was "God bless you."
Doesn't this make you realize how great your life is?
I have enormous respect for the people who smile, when you know they want to cry.
This really has opened my eyes.
Next time you pass something like this, don't pull the "I'm too busy, life."
Are you really that busy?
If you could change someones life, by sparing 5 minutes of your time.
Would you do it?
I know many people who have gave their time up for me, it has truly blessed my life.
I'm thankful for everyone I have met.
Who I have become friends with.
Who have inspired me, and helped me through the hardest of times.
Thank you all.
Let's all give random acts of kindness.
Till next time....
