Paying it forward.

A lot of people say they want to make a difference in the world, and many times do not simply because they think it needs to be a grand gesture of some sort. I am not saying I am some driving force in the world constantly making huge impacts each day.

What I do try and do is make my part of the world better. Something as simple as helping someone take a more positive prospective of a bad situation. Encouraging someone who is having a difficult time, building meaningful lasting relationships with the people who matter to us most. We can't fix the entire world in one swoop, I have learned that the hard way recently. I am just a firm believer in make an impact locally, and it will spread. Most of us have seen the Movie "Pay it forward." I challenge you to do just that just once each day. If it becomes contagious, we have all been part of changing the world. Please, dont underestimate the power of human connection.

If you are thinking of a way where you could make a difference and do not know where to start. Please do some quick research on Bradley Hospital located here in Rhode Island. This is a hidden gem, that should not be hidden. It is a mental health hospital for children and adolescents that is on the cutting edge of treatments such as Autism, OCD, Juvenile Substance Abuse, and so much more. Given the situation with insurance reimbursements and a misunderstanding of mental health issues face us today, the need has never been greater.

I thank you for whatever you share, even if it is only the post to get the word out there. You can make a difference and I thank you.
