What You Can Do

One song can spark a moment, 
    One flower can wake the dream.
    One tree can start a forest, 
    One bird can herald spring. 
    One smile begins a friendship, 
    One handclasp lifts a soul. 
    One star can guide a ship at sea, 
    One word can frame the goal. 
    One vote can change a nation, 
    One sunbeam lights a room. 
    One candle wipes out darkness, 
    One laugh will conquer gloom. 
    One step must start each journey, 
    One word must start each prayer. 
    One hope will raise our spirits, 
    One touch can show you care. 
    One voice can speak with wisdom, 
    One heart can know what's true. 
    One life can make the difference, 
    You see it's up to YOU! 

As Edward Everett Hale said, "I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something I can do."

“Between 1305 and the early 1800’s. the House of Taxis ran a form of pony express service all over Europe….   Its couriers clad in blue and silver uniforms, crisscrossed the continent carrying messages between princes and generals, merchants and money lenders.” –Alvin Toffler, The Third Wave We may think we are the first generation consumed by rapid communication but we are not.   Throughout our history it has been a priority. Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
