Everyone Must Contribute if Change Is To Come About


I value the sacred journey of life!  That said when I see the way in which some of our citizens must live I find myself wondering how we got this way.  In our communities we have more homeless elders going without meals and healthcare.  I ask the question why.  Have we been some consumed with our own lives that we can not see the need of others.  We need to take time to see through the eyes of inclusiveness.  That everyone should be afforded a safe place to live and food.  That means we all must give of our time and money.  To be in service does not mean not taking care of yourself but it means reaching out and making a difference everyday in the life of someone else.  Its not just giving money…it also speaking up for what is right and ensuring that laws and policies do not hurt those who are already living on the thresholds of our world.
