I want YOU to lend me your mind for a moment. I need to ask you all for a favor, I am asking for your help, that’s right, I am asking for everybody’s help. Help me to make this blue and green place a little more peaceful by helping others in need. What I mean by “in need” is the homeless, elderly, children, the mentally challenged, single mothers, ignorant people, etc. How can we as humans look down on these people who are in need? I am not going to sit here and list all the “good things” I have done in my life. That would just be me being a douche bag, just know I practice everything I preach. I do not find it fair to look down on any man or woman. Just because a man is homeless doesn’t mean he’s not a good man. So why do we treat the homeless like they’re trash on the streets? We can spend hundreds of dollars on handbags, clothing, jewelry, and other forms of bullshit, but we can’t give a starving man a few dollars? I am absolutely appauled sometimes. It hurts to know some people would step over a man in need. We treat the elderly like they’re an inconvenience. This person has lived a long life, treat them with more respect. They have seen things, and paved the way for future generations. How have people become so self-centered? We’re all human, we are in this together. We need each other on this planet, so why not help a man or woman who’s down on their luck. It’s not about handing out money; help can be as simple spending time. Giving an elderly person just a little of your time can change their moral. Giving knowledge is a helping hand; giving someone a new hope, new insight or a new wriggle on their brain is the goal. Help adults, youth, or both to be a little more enlightened. Help can be as simple as lending an ear as they share their problems. I know what you might be saying, “I have problems too.” Look at it like this, wouldn’t you want someone to be there for you, to listen and offer advice in your time of need? I am just asking you just to help anyone tomorrow, a stranger, loved one, a co worker, or whoever seems in need of your help. A helping hand can go a long way in someone’s life. Help can be something as simple as making someone smile or telling someone they’re “beautiful.” Good energy produces great people, great people produce beautiful things. I just want some people to stop being so blind and open their eyes. I am not asking anyone to save the whales, but if we all lend a helping hand, a positive spirit, an open heart, or some time just imagine how beautiful this world could turn out. If you’re still reading then you’re feeling what I am saying. Help your fellow man (or woman) in need, pay kindness forward, not backwards. Changing the world on a small scale is how it starts. If we’re all are changing this world together just image how big that movement will turn out.
I came in peace and now I am leaving in peace.
I’ve hope you enjoyed reading my thoughts
Until next time…
Really? The Beatles….HELP! I NEED SOMEBODY!
*fade ipod over to feist*
子供の頃からThe Beatlesが大好きで、一日中The Beatlesを聴く日も多々あります。 かなりマニアックな曲も好きで、特に好きな曲はHelp!です。
This is very inspiring work you have created for us. Some people need to know that these things can ensue to anyone. You have shown me a better view now.
