make a difference in this world

that I have.

is in this grand scheme of things. But I know it exists.

It’s much easier to blame your father, your mother, the environment, the government, the lack of money, but even if you find a place to assign the blame, it doesn’t make the problems go away.

I’ve never been a protestor or an activist, but I believe strongly in organizations that promote peace through constructive action, such as Peaceworks. www.peaceworks.com My way of making a difference in this big old world is by buying products from companies that are trying to make a difference in the world, such as Meditalia. The philosophy of Meditalia, through their business partnership among Israelis and Arabs, is that shared wallets lead to shared visions of the future. I think this is a great thing and should be the mold for a lot of similar movements in the world.

my thinking.

“I have never been especially impressed by the heroics of people who are convinced they are about to change the world. I am more awed by those who struggle to make one small difference after another.”

~Ellen Goodman

I wonder what the purpose is of life if I can’t make a difference to someone. I’m not interested in being a negative difference. That’s all too easy. I want to be a positive difference. That’s difficult. Really difficult. All I can do is be the best person that I can be. Also difficult.
