There are some basics of our journey that are good to remind ourselves of. We know the big ones, focus on life, learning and fitness, stay true to our goals, make commitments to ourselves and keep them and so on. Often, though, we forget to explicitly remind ourselves that much of what we do in life is to be in service to others. To offer help, guidance, and assistance so that we can help someone get to where they need to go. It can be a simple basic need, or it can be sophisticated life advice. It can be lending a hand or just being available when others need it. The message, clear, that we are here to help others and in return the greatest gift that we can get – a thank you for being there for someone. Simple and impactful, the world a better place for actions and thoughts like this.

Loving life when I lend a hand
