There is magic all around you, around us. No matter how insignificant a thing we do, there is likely to be some element of goodness in it provided it is a kind or benevolent act. To spot it, all you need to do is pause in your mad pursuit of your goal and try to put your finger on it. A certain degree of conscious effort is involved in this exercise. So what? Try doing it sometime, you will feel nice about it.
You see so much happening around you. Things that do down well with you or things that upset you or drive you nuts. Instead of letting them be as they are, have you ever thought of doing something to change it? In case you are one like me who has never lifted a finger to make a difference, there is a ray of hope - it is not too late. Yes, there is no time limit to doing something good. You can do it anytime you want to. You just need to be inspired.
You see garbage piled up on a side of the road or strewn around - obviously where it should not be. What is our usual reaction to such a scenario? We turn blind and man oeuvre our way such that we can walk by without stepping on it or letting the stench get to us. But that is hardly nice. We do it all the time but we are never happy about it. In fact there is this niggling feeling of guilt. How about doing something different? Like for instance picking up the trash and adding an element of beauty to
your surroundings.
Inspire yourself to do this and you will be surprised to see many others join you in this noble endeavor. There is no rule that says you cannot do it. So, do not worry about violating some accepted code of conduct. Do this bit for the environment that nurtures you and you are sure to find blessings somewhere.
