Saving the World

I have always been a big dreamer. When I have set out to accomplish things in the past, my targets have seldom been small and local, but, rather, large and global. These last several years I have been much quieter than in the past. My efforts have been on a spiritual front rather than anything which may be seen or measured by this world. When people I have not seen for a long time run into me and ask me what I am up to, I generally answer with; 'I am saving the world!'
I say this only half jokingly. I then follow with; 'I am saving myself first!' Mahatma Gandhi said; 'Be the change you want to see in the world'. I believe in his words with all my heart. I also believe that our actions affect many more people than we know...and that if we can put out more love, more peace and more kindness into the world, then we are doing our part to promote peace and to bringing heaven to earth.
