The Power Of One
Post Category: Makes You Think, Social Justice
There are so many problems all around us. We’re facing global poverty, hunger and disease on a massive scale and according to the daily news things aren’t getting better anytime soon. With this kind of discouraging news bombarding us every day it’s easy to get overwhelmed.
Then I read this quote this morning.
“I am only one, but still I am one.
I cannot do everything,
but still I can do something.
And because I cannot do everything
I will not refuse to do the
something that I can do.”
- Hellen Keller
I was reminded that we cannot let the things we can’t do right now stop us from doing the things we can do.
This goes perfect with a guest blog post that Margaret Feinberg emailed me that is going to be posted next week. I can’t wait for you guys to read it.
In the meantime check out the original artwork I created to remind us that even one person doing the one thing they can do can make a difference.
For a practical thing you can do right now check out and donate to Real Hope For Hati. Read more about what you can do to help here, here and here.
