Second, you will take responsibility. You are a member of the human family. What happens to one, happens to all. Pain, suffering, cruelty, no matter where they happen in the world, are part of your personal legacy. If you want them to stop, you must be willing to place yourself square in the middle of the fray. You are related to all of us.
Third, you will take action. This may be the simplest of all. If you knew how many organizations and groups of all sizes need your help, you would quit the excuse making and be out there everyday, literally saving the world. Everything--from environmental causes to political action groups--is clamoring for your attention. Raise your intellectual and emotional radar, and the right group will show itself. If you're already involved, intensify!
And finally, you will take heart. Remember, the world only seems to be falling apart. Hear this: the average age in the US is 70-75 years. At the turn of the 20th century, it was only 47. Today we have medicines and surgeries and psychological practices that save many more lives than at any time in history. We know how to feed ourselves better. We are actually doing something about the environment. (It may not seem or sound like it, but the collective mind is opening.) Even the poorer nations of the world are getting more attention. There's a long way to go, but that's why you're here.
