Make a contribution

Make this a day that you make a contribution to the world or to your immediate family or community. Often we discount and dismiss our own importance. Don't sell yourself short! Just by trying to be your best self each day, you make a positive impact. Years ago I worked at a school with a monastery attached. The sisters who lived there felt that everything they did could be an act of faith or a way of helping to create a peaceful presence in the world. Even little things matter.
Whether you do laundry, cook for others, run a business, or are a full-time student, you have something to offer today. Pay attention, be mindful, and deliberate about sharing yourself in a positive way.
