I came across this picture when I was looking for things I could add to my blog. I immediately thought of the song by The O' Jays. Wouldn't it be nice if we could do what the song says and be more united? Why do we only show love, concern, and become willing to serve our fellow mankind when there is some huge disaster? Why does it take something bad to make us do some good? It's like the Black Eyed Peas says, "Where is the love?" We as people need to learn to become less self absorbed. Just a thought. I'm not thinking of anyone in particular as I write this, I just think it's something everybody (including myself) can work on throughout this year. I also need to remember that there is always someone worse off than I am and I need to be more open to the opportunities for service that are presented to me. This is something my family talked about when we were sharing our resolutions, to do more service this year. Something as simple as smiling and saying hi to someone might make a world of difference to them that day. Something to keep in mind as you go about your daily life:
