THE DAILY SPARK

RISK BEING CHANGED

To really listen is to risk being changed forever.

Sa’K’es Henderson – Native American Elder

REFLECTION:

  • Think of a time when you really listened to someone and it changed your view (of them or a belief or a way of seeing the world).
  • How well do you listen?
  • Are you willing to listen to another… risk being changed?
  • Change can look like compassion for another… forgiveness, an open heart…

LOWEST EBB

The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow – a line from the poem Loss and Gain.

 

REFLECTION:

  • Have you reached a low point?  Maybe your lowest point?
  • What if the tide is about to change… circumstances are shifting for a favorable change?
  • Embrace the change… the shift in the tide.

JUST GIVE

“I believe that service to humanity is the best work of life.  The world would be a better place if we can strive to make someone around us happy.  No matter how little, just give.”

Quote by Moses Newman

REFLECTION:

  • What gifts/services do you share with humanity?
  • How can you make someone happy today?
  • Just give!
