Each and every day we envision a world of peace, clean air, and world where leaders of the next generation thrive to make the world a better place. People will show compassion to their fellow-man and help each other when in need with no other purpose then to lend a hand. But first we must learn from our mistakes.
It is these simple steps which will foster the change we need to create as global citizens in order to make our world a better place for the next generation.
Now the key is getting everyone to play by the same set of rules. Is it possible? What you add to the list?
I’d add something like: Remember that there is a difference between wants and needs; weigh your requests of other people and society accordingly. People tend to confuse those two concepts & that might slow down world peace.
Beautiful! It is so true do we really need it? or do we want it? Water is a basic need to survive and a handbag is just a want because our friends have it. So simple. But something everyone seems to forget including me from time to time.
I love this one, truly.
It’s perfect!
Respect each other’s viewpoints, even if you don’t agree with them. Be kind to everyone.
This is awesome grounding Darcie
I can’t wait till the commercials are over.
Thank you Karen! Respect is key when debating or having any form of open dialog. It is through listening that can bridge the gap to greatness!
I’d add to the list just because someone sits across the aisle from you politically doesn’t mean that they never have a good idea. Whatever happened to statesmanship and doing what is good for the country instead of just your party. All politicians could use some compromise in their vocabulary.
Hear! Hear! They really do! It’s not always about who is more right! It is about working towards the common goals that are good for the nation.
We never know how people arrived at what they believe. Respect that journey.
I like this
I like it too!
We really do need to respect that journey because we will never know until we walk a mile in someone’s shoes.
Learn to say sorry and admit it when you make a pledge you later find you can’t keep.
I like that one! The simple act of humility to realize that sometimes we can’t always achieve the goals we set out to do.
Keeping a genuine smile, a forgiving heart and kind words with us at all times, using them liberally throughout our day…
A forgiving hear is very important and something I have to remind myself of each day.
same here…over and over…
Some times it is not always easy but I guess that is why it is worth it in the end.
“Care more about giving than about taking.”
Beautiful! I truly believe the more we give in this world at some point it always comes back to us it the simplest and kindest gestures
And remember – sometimes other people are wrong, and we have to have the courage NOT to compromise, but to stand for what we believe. It can be tempting to compromise rather than be courageous, but honesty about what we value is helpful in the end.
Honesty is the best policy and most of the time most politicians don’t play by the same rules. I believe that ideologies can tear people so far apart that the middle man is left shaking his head. So sometimes people do have to meet in the middle in order to take one small baby step forward for better or worse.
That’s really true. This political campaign we have going here in the U.S. is tearing apart families, friends, business associates. It’s pretty distressing.
I have been following it and I can only imagine the tension people are feeling at this stage of the game.
