Start small. Try mindfulness meditation for 10 or 20 minutes a few times a week. Think of the humanity of the people you see on street, in the store, etc. Try to really understand where other are coming from. Work for peace.

Go to a local city government meeting and find out what’s going on in your community. There’s always something that needs improvement and you can really make a difference.

I stopped shaving in 1990 and I’ve never regetted it!
