Yesterday I had a conversation with our daughter Claysha. I asked her what she wanted to do in life. She stated that she wanted to change the world. She said, "I know that sounds corny, but I really want that." No...it's not corny....it's wonderful. If only more people thought that way. So, I sent her this link, and I hope that all of you copy and paste it in your browser.

Young people think that 'changing the world' means going to college to be a social worker. Being a nurse or doctor, a scientist, or something that would absolutely serve humanity. What young people do not realize, is that we can change the world just by doing a simple thing. A small pebble thrown into the water can make a difference for a very long time.
I am a hat maker, a lover of vintage clothing. But sometimes my job entails listening to a woman cry about her child, spouse or parent. Understanding when the world is not understanding them. Giving encouragement when they are overweight, underweight, or in poor health. I throw my pebble in the water every day. I may not see what comes from it. I hope something does. But we can only try.........
If everyone does something kind for one person every day, ....wouldn't that be alot of ripples in the water?
