We can “make the world a better place “by being the best person we can be. We need to be a walking example of what we believe is the kind and understanding way to be. Helping one person to recognize and appreciate all the things around them is, in fact, creating a teacher. They will then pass their knowledge on to another!  Showing someone to see all the beauty and wonders surrounding them is a great thing. People need to learn to respect others and to “treat people as they would wish to be treated”!

We have to be patient! The world cannot be saved in a day. It has taken time to break it, and it will take awhile to fix it! There is power in numbers, and we are one of many! We can make the world a better place by setting a good example and helping one person at a time. We need show people all the wonderful things around them. They will pass it on to someone else. Helping people to help themselves has a positive effect.  Joy and happiness are things that spread and make the world a better place.

You cannot tell me, “This is impossible, there are just too many people”? Nothing is impossible, unless you quit before you start! We only get as much out of this world as we take the trouble to put into it! There are millions of us; so let’s all jump on board. With any luck, we will help several people in our life time, and they will go on to help many more. Let the good we do trickle down and spread to the people around us! There are mostly kind and generous people in this world who really enjoy helping others. We hear more about the trouble makers because,” The squeaky wheel, gets the grease”. Bad people tend to be noticed and good people are just there.

We need to quit complaining about “all the things that are wrong with this world”. Let’s get out there and start doing something to fix it. Talk is cheap, and it is our actions, which counts. Stop complaining about what is wrong with the things. Let’s get out there and start fixing them. We can do it one little thing at a time. The energy from a good and kind person spreads all around us. If we treat people with kindness and respect, hopefully, they will treat us the same. We will never know if we are not willing to try. We have a responsibility to set an example and give other people a chance to bring out the good within them.

Imagine the changes we can make with “trickle down kindness”. Think of the possibilities! We can make the world a better place by teaching one person at a time. The person we teach will spread the kindness to another and then another. The compassion will spread to a hundred, a million and in time possibly a trillion. Kindness and good can spread from state to state and from one country to another. “Yes”, there are people who will resist. Some people are just evil! We can never give up or stop trying. Resistance should inspire and give us the incentive to try harder!

Making the world a better place is a challenge; but it’s “doable”! We need to take the lead and be responsible for our part. Learn to be kind and have patience with those around us, even when they don’t deserve it! We need to recognize when a person is a lost cause. It is important to know when it is time to move on to someone who we will be able to help. We should set an example by being the good person we want the people around us to be. Others will follow our lead. Don’t forget to have patience. Change for the better takes time! One thing is for certain; if we do nothing, things will never change!
