Ramsey - 03 Sep 2009
Be a Better Place isn’t only about what I want or what you want. It’s about appreciating the different things - specifically- that we each want. Last night, at the official launch of Be a Better Place, a group of us came together and shared what we all think would make the world better. It was an inspiring night and it embodied what Be a Better Place is here to do- creating that dialogue is what this site is all about.
It is also about recognizing that sometimes what we say we want isn’t always consistent with the way we act. For instance, I can say “People should say ‘Thank You’” but do I always say “Thank you”? Am I making demands of others that I am not fulfilling myself? Only when I have taken responsibility for that first action, can I truly commit to supporting others and their beliefs- and hope for the same support in return.
So, that’s today’s request: Think about what would make the world better. Right now or in the future. Record and upload your video as a statement that you will commit to doing it. Let’s start there and then tackle the next step.
Thank you in advance.
