Change

I'm trying to write something to inspire people to change. To change the way we look at others, to change the way we treat people whether we know them or not; whether we like them or not. Do we change or do we just sit and watch the cruelty go by? In this I mean, can we look at "The Big Picture of Life" and realize that if we don't change ours ways soon, how can we make this world a better place? We can't make it a better place unless we are willing and able to change.

I see life come and go and of all ages. People die. It's a part of life. We accept it and move on. But before I die I want to be able to say at the gates of Heaven that I've tried to spread the love. I tried to make people realize that life isn't about money or social status. It's about being kind and generous to others. It's about taking the time to not just walking with blinders on. Open your eyes and see the beauty this world has to offer. See the beauty in everything around you and everyone around you. Even the meanest people you know have a good side.

Think about that guy who just cut you off. You're pissed. You want road rage. You want to slap him in the head. But, if you take a second to think about it and ask yourself 'is he really getting to that place he needs to be any sooner as he's at a stop at the red light in front of you? It's kinda funny if you ask me. Or, take the same situation and ask yourself, 'is he in a hurry because one of his loved ones is in the hospital or something bad has happened? For Pete sake what ever the reason is, let it go. It's not important. Just let him and it go. Life is too short to get so angry plus think of all the energy you're wasting. Your body and mind don't need the stress

If you leave a comment, and I hope you do, please leave ways about how we can change and how we can do our part to change others. Let's face it, we can't change everyone but we can surely try.

Peace to all and much love,
Rick
