You must be the change you wish to see in the world-Gandhi

I came into this thread to post that quote.

BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD.

It's the only way.

Must learn to give up pushing individual will on others because no two people will have the same perfect vision of the perfect world.... if they like your world, they come into it. Like magnets they draw together....and that is all I know how to do it. Pushing and pulling is too exhausting. True revolution/evolution is slow, then fast, then slow, sometimes invisible and darkened but I see the light at the end of the tunnel even when it's very, very dim. We've all got our different roles, and we do the best we can. What you are good at, I am weak at, what I am good at, you are weak at...on and on....so we help each other, see what we share in common....work towards that....and expect no fruits, be grateful for little things. I know people dislike the word HOPE but it really is the only way, keep your eye on the light and don't be dragged back.

yes... and if more people truly understood this, we'd all live in more harmony. But people are inherently lazy. A lot of talk and no action. Love is an action.

Love is indeed an action.

Action does not have to be splashy or paid or exciting or difficult either.

Often, what we think are small, insignificant actions are actually quite BIG.

Learning to make peace with the parts you hate about yourself is BIG ACTION.

Smiling at a stranger on the street is BIG ACTION.

Thinking a healing thought toward another is a BIG ACTION.

Etc.
