"I am only one, But I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do, interfere with what I can." - Edward Everett Hale
I started off this post with that quote because of the meaning behind it. A lot of times, people want to help the world, but they just don't know how. They feel as though helping locally, won't have any sort of impact on the world as a whole. Let me just say, That is the wrong mind set! First, You have to think positive. Second, You have to realize that SOMETHING is more than NOTHING. No one has yet to conquer world hunger. However, there are people across American, as well as the world that get involved, and do whatever they can! Grab a trash bag, some plastic gloves and an iPod. Have your parents or someone close to you take you to a local park, and pick up trash to make the park a better place for all to visit. Or you can go to a homeless shelter and serve Christmas Dinner. Stop by the children's Orphanage and read them a story. There are millions of ways to help both the environment and others. My grandma told me something the other day. She said "Chani, Don't miss the forest for the trees." In this case, meaning don't get so caught up in trying to do things beyond your reach, that you miss local things in YOUR community that could use a helping hand. So, Get out there TODAY and lend hand, like me! You'll feel so much better at the end of the day.
As Deko and Posh would say, Love life.. Dream Big.. Live well!
Until Next Time..
Xo, Chani!
