To finish off my first post (hopefully, third time lucky!):

If we followed this man’s lead,
we would gradually overcome
all obstacles that impede,
for this imagined world is the goal
we secretly long for with all our hearts.
“Then let’s start on the path,” comes the shout,
“that will make it concrete, substantial and real!”
(from 'Family and More - Enemies or Friends')

It seems to be that the 365 Club has already started out on this path. Thank you for this story.

An inspiring story! I've been blessed to know some wonderfully kind people in my life, such as my physio who gives of his time so generously, and I've often thought about what the world would be like if we all followed his example:

'If we all gave of ourselves
as this man does,
imagine the world we would create!
Each of us treating strangers
as our other half,
where nothing was too much
for the well-being of another
and selfishness was forgotten,
a thing of the past.
If we followed this man’s lead,
we would gradually overcome
all obstacles that impede,
for this imagined world is the goal
we secretly long for with all our hearts.
“Then let’s start on the path,” comes the shout,
“that will make it concrete, substantial and real!”
(from my book 'Family and More - Enemies or Friends?')

It seems to me that the 365 Club has already started out on that path. 'Small things done with great love can change the world' - I agree!
