Hello everyone- I recently watched the movie Gandhi, and then my son had to write about Rosa Parks.
Knowing that all these messages are meant to show us that in the face of insurmountable odds, the power of One stands out.
To take a stand means to set boundries, not through violence, but out of personal integrity and Love. We then inspire others to do the same.
Standing up for what we believe may bring criticism,and personal risk, but it is done for our own personal journey first and formost.
That day, when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on that bus, it may not have been at the time done for all black Americans, she was setting a personal boundry that inevitably changed civil rights and sent a ripple around the world.
Ghandi was just a man, who united a country, fought foreign invasion, in bare feet and a loin cloth. Without weapons. His personal intergity, faith and love spoke to millions, and still does even today.
Make your life your art, fashion it to bring you peace, love and joy and you will inspire others to do the same.
That is the power of one.
Here is the thought of the day;
Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.
AUTHOR: Mahatma Gandhi
BIOGRAPHY: Indian philosopher, internationally esteemed for his doctrine of nonviolent protest, 1869-1948
