Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. We are made for goodness. We are made for love. We are made for tenderness. We are made for friendship. We are made for each other. There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered. |
