Many people feel depressed, overwhelmed, and defeated by the state of our world. When one’s reaction to the latest disaster is, “Oh, no, I don’t want to hear anymore, I can’t take it,” it’s hard to get enthusiastic about jumping in to make a difference. Jump in where? Do what? It’s too much! And of course it would be too much if each one of us had to do it all. But from now on we’re not going to believe those voices, because each of us will be focusing on just one thing (can be any size thing) that we will do to help ourselves, one another, and our world. Since the quality of our lives is determined by the focus of our attention, it’s important that we focus on the Onething we can do to make a difference.
Wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, each and every moment of the day there is one thing you can do to honor life, one thing that will honor you and the world you live in. It might be using cloth bags at the grocery store, not driving one day a week, reading a story to a child, or smiling at a stranger. We live in one world. Nothing can happen to you that doesn’t happen to me. Nothing can happen to them that doesn’t happen to us. For better or for worse, we are in this together. Let’s make it for better. Join the peaceful Onething revolution.
