I saw this quote in an office of a Social Worker who day in
and day out faces those, who are at the end of their financial line, at the end
of their hope in working to provide for their families, at the end of their
faith that a different possibility was available to them, meeting each story
and person with a smile in her heart.
Everyone can be great
Because everyone can serve
You don’t have to have a degree to serve
You don’t have to make your subject and your verb agree to
serve
You only need a heart full of grace
A soul generated by love.
Words by Martin Luther King Jr. on a faded piece of copy
paper hanging blue thumbtacked to the office cubicle wall permeate the day in
and day out efforts that unfold as these Angels work within the boundaries of a
system pushed to its limits stretching where they can and living in a practice
of humanity where everyone is treated with respect. Where the difficulties of
circumstance con-tinue to grow but who never stop believing a kind word, a
practice of service and an action of love
can transform someone’s life.
Make today a day where you brighten someone's day. Be great in your actions and your efforts.
With Infinite Love and Gratitude
