~ A little Effort changed the World ~

This was posted recently at an internet board:

< What I want to see are conscious ones tuning in to
each other in an unprecedented way.... Starting right
here, with you dear thinker. >

I replied:

You know, we have the feeling 'it isn't working'? But maybe
it is working. Lots of people we meet each day are trying to
be themselves and are trying to live properly, but maybe we
sometimes don't notice. Everyone needs encouragement.

I can reveal that much of the time, for a long time,
I have so much wished for encouragement or a good
word - from anyone.

When it comes - encouragement - I sing. I start working
harder. At least 300% harder. Solely because someone said
Thanks to me. Or smiled. Or said I did a good job. Or even
said 'That kind of work must be important'. Even if their
words had a partial question mark after them. Because I go
away thinking to myself: 'Yes. I believe it's important.'

What it comes down to is some real connection with other
people. Instead of just having an empty desert issuing out
of the people we meet. Perhaps they are communicating,
and we didn't notice.

I say daft things to the staff in the local store, just because
I feel to say them. And they (definitely seem to anyway)
respond.

... < Starting right here, with you dear thinker >

I responded with:

I just sent out these thoughts to quite a few people:

"I think it's because we don't encourage others enough;
and many people with high hopes and great intentions fall
by the wayside feeling their efforts were useless ... broken
-hearted and dispirited they (we?) walk off into the desert
and stop trying.

It seems, the key medicine is: if every day we keep putting
out pieces of encouragement we may see a snow-ball start
which will grow, and grow, and grow. Encouragement and
kindness are the oils which make life work."

The Rainbow Dream Vision: "This prophecy is a dream
and vision that is a potential reality for mankind. It is not
an ultimatum. But it is ours to behold and to create if we
only dare to create it together."

Central American Mayan Elder: "Human beings must
come together in support of life. At present, each person
and group is going his or her own way. There is hope
if people can come together and unite."

"We must do what we conceive to be the right thing and
not bother our heads or burden our souls with whether we
will be successful. Because if we don't do the right thing,
we will be doing the wrong thing and we will just be a part
of the disease and not a part of the cure."
- E F Schumacher
