What do you want to see in the world? More peace? More love? More kindness? According to Gandhi, the answer is simple: we must be the change we want to see.

You want world peace? Bless the person who cut you off and honked at you on your way to work. Wish them a safe journey instead of getting caught up in their anger and impatience.

You want more kindness? Smile at the person who might be frustrating you. Open the door for someone, pick up a piece of trash. BE kind.

Simple but not easy. Be the Change.

“Hi Brian, I love the new site. When I feel stuck or uninspired I always find that one of the wise has pondered the question and then with a quick flick, I have the answer! Magic! I wish they would teach philosophy to children, it would make the world a better place. Much love, Lollie.x”
