What This World Needs: More Human Connection

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion.  People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love.  For love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.” Nelson Mandela

What can I do??

Not sure what to do with all the awful events that are happening around the world?

I’ve heard people say that in the grand scheme they don’t think they can really make a difference.  This is only true if you think making a change, in even one single person’s life, doesn’t mean anything.  You may never know the larger ripple effect that could take place, but that’s not yours to worry about.

Most of us can look back and see how someone did something kind or supportive, even a small gesture, that made a big impact in our lives. On the other hand, you may look back and remember a time where you were lonely and confused, and could have used a kind word or support, but it never came.

All of us, including the white supremacist I mention in today’s video are craving connection.  That human connection can come from a place of love and goodness, or from the opposite.  Not acting at all, is a decision, too.

In today’s video I’m sharing 8 ideas that each of us can immediately become official agents-of-change.

Thank you for being a loving force in this world.

With love,
