What Is Your Favourite World-Changing Gift Idea?

An article by Julia Moulden in today’s Huffington Post Living Section posed this question.

Here’s my absolute favourite world-changing gift idea:

Pick someone in your very near vicinity: family / neighbour/ colleague / acquaintance …even better if you choose someone to whom you don’t often give of yourself…. and do just that …give of yourself….in a way that makes a difference to them and their needs over time.  For me, this is a way of remembering and reminding that as we focus on giving back in today’s society, we include those in our immediate tangible reach!

Imagine if we all did that for one individual….an exquisite statement about who we are and ……….ahhh! a changed world right in our own backyard!!

    What a great world-changing thought. I wonder, too, if another, complementary idea might be: be the change you want to see. Rather than think about the changes you’d like to see, actually model the changes.

    Thanks for your comment, Ron. Yes, I agree – in all our efforts,
    leading with being is definitely the way to make a difference!
