In my very first episode I spoke about societal needs. The ones we know about… and the ones we are still learning to understand.
Sometimes just thinking about all that NEED is unbearable. And so I remember to think like Mr. Rogers and look for the helpers.
And then I remind myself that I’m not a bystander- I’m an upstander! So it is MY responsibility to be the change I wish to see… And I seek ways to become the helper. And if I’ve inspired someone else to try it too… Well then, that’s how we change our community, our city and the world…
And that’s what we are gonna tackle today…
Would you like to round up? We’ve all heard the question. Usually it depends on the cause. I’ve become very intentional with my “impulse give”- you know, the opposite of an impulse buy. But when I feel especially down, the New Yorker in me craves a slice of cheese pizza and the opportunity to do a mitzvah (a good deed)… which is how I met my guest today.
