Unless
someone like
you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.
The Lorax
The words of the Lorax make good
sense when it comes to you making changes for the better. In the story, the Lorax called for the
businessman to be responsible with nature but my challenge is to be responsible
with life. Your life!! It is quite frequent that most people facing
a life challenge will not make the necessary changes UNLESS things become
critical. It really doesn’t have to get critical for you
to make changes in the world, it takes passion. Turning passion into performance can make a
real difference in the world around you. This reminds me of a great quote I read,
“The richer, the wiser, the more powerful
a man is the greater is the
obligation
upon him to employ his gifts in the lessening of the
sum of Human misery.” John Randolph
Just
like the Lorax warned the businessman in the story, John Randolph informs us
that our control over some type of resources or power obligates us to use that
gift to better the world around us.
As
a care giver, you are entrusted with the well-being of another human being,
which is a monumental task in our day. The
gift you have been given is a powerful testimony of the grace in our
world. Making good use of that gift
calls for your diligence, love and persistence to offer it well to those who
need it most.
May
God bless you in caring for another person in support of their life to find
worth in our world today.
