It's all about me, not about you....

Hello all,
It's all about me, not about you....
That seems to be the ongoing message from people in our society. But that way of thinking isn't working anymore.
 
Times are a changin'
 
Sometimes we are so consumed with what is going on for us, we forget to be of service, without thought of reward, or pay; just be present and of service to another.
 
If we can take the focus off the self, and purely give to others, it causes us to see how often we think of ourselves. What does it mean for me?
 
Giving of ourselves causes us to catch ourselves and check our motives.
 
Find a way to be of service, even in the simplest form.
You'll be glad you did.
 
 
Here is the thought for the day!
 
If someone listens, or strectches out a hand, or whispers a kind word of encouragement, or attempts to understand a lonely person, extraordinary things begin to happen

Namaste,
Marianne Goldweber
