Mindsets

by Rod Smith
  • The world is broken: may I do my part and in my sphere of influence offer my contribution, be it large or small, to participate in its healing. 
  • The world is exciting: may I participate in what it offers by engaging in community events and by serving others. 
  • People are lonely and I too am often lonely: may I do my part and reach out to others and be a good listener.
  • People are usually fabulous, hilarious, creative: may I embrace some of the many opportunities that come my way to meet new people.
  • People are struggling in all manner of ways: may I do my part, large or small, and be generous and in creative and helpful ways, ease the burdens others have to bear.
  • Possibilities are endless: may I have an eye for new ways to do “old” things and see potential others are yet to consider. 
  • People can be hard and ruthless and unforgiving – may I be gentle-hearted and kind, equipped, ready and able to offer appropriate grace.
