I live my life as a force for good.
I see the beauty and joy in this world and I pass this knowledge on to others, hoping that they will see the same.
I am striving for the ripple effect where each person I help starts another ripple that gets larger and larger as time goes on.
I do not need to make waves in mass quantities in order for my ripples to have a lasting impact.
It’s like the story of the boy on the beach.
One day he came upon hundreds of starfish that had been stranded.
As he walked, he picked up one starfish at a time and threw it back into the ocean.
A man happened by who saw what he was doing.
He asked the boy, “How can you possibly make a difference here? There must be thousands!”
The boy replied as he picked up another starfish and tossed it into the water, “It makes a difference to this one.”
Similarly, I know I make a significant difference in the lives of others.
My spouse’s life is made better by my presence.
I teach my children how to live responsibly, joyfully, and develop their God-given talents for a happy, fulfilled life.
They then pass along this gift to their children and my impact goes on for generations!
It is a good legacy and I am thankful for it.
Today, I plan to start at least one new ripple of joy by helping someone who never expected it.
What are you doing to make a lasting impact on this earth?
How are you teaching others to do the same?
