Over the years of live we tend to give parts of ourselves away. We do this because as we grow, mature, and then gain life experience we undoubtedly come across times that we struggle with, but then overcome and it makes us stronger than before.
But as we overcome, it makes us more acutely aware of seeing other people facing the same struggles themselves.
The thing is, we tend to give a bit of ourselves to them, because we don’t want others to have the hardships we may have had. Sometimes we give more of ourselves that we thought, and perhaps at times more than we should. But still give of ourselves. I like to think of it as the best of human nature. Doing it without hesitation, because sometimes hesitation can make us too late to make a difference.
You should never underestimate the opportunity to make a difference. It doesn’t matter how much or how little you do, but whatever it is that makes the difference to someone who needs it, it will be worth more than a bounty of treasures because it is real. It is tangible and that is the difference. It isn’t about lavish or extravagant gestures, it’s about giving a little piece of you when it matters most. It’s all the little missing parts that make you perfect, because it’s all the little missing parts that have changed someone’s world.
We help because it’s what makes us human.
We help because it’s who we are.
We help because we should.
Give a little, so others can live a little…
