Unexpected time

I have a bit of unexpected time on my hands; something that I will go into at a later date. Wanting to make myself useful I asked a friend, “what do you think is the most important thing we can be doing right now?”  Her reply, without hesitation, was as follows:

 

1)      Writing and sharing

2)      Making a positive difference to one individual

 

I often fall into a way of thinking that suggests only great works and grand gestures can change the world. By doing so I lose sight of the impact we have every single day. It is inescapable that we influence those lives around us, and we all have the choice as to whether this is in a positive or negative way.

 

As to writing and sharing, I had got out of the habit of doing this (at least on a public platform). I was still sending the occasional handwritten letter, but my thoughts had become somewhat occupied by the focus of work. I am finding now though that there is much I want to say, and prompted by my friend, I shall be extending these things to anyone who wishes to read.

 

Take care,
