Sometimes I feel down about the evil in the world, about the hate and lies and selfishness that exists all around us. But then I think about how my Dad just came and gave me some of the pizza he just made when I got home from work, hungry. And how my best friend rushed home after he finished work last night, changed into a suit and tie, heated up some food then drove all the way to the Temple just to have a quick dinner date with me when I came outside. And how customers at work call me 'pet' or 'sweetie' or 'hun'. And how people smile back at you as you pass on the street. And how young men give up their seat for women and elderly people on the bus. And how a people slow down for other drivers to cross over into their lane. And how strangers offer to share umbrellas when it suddenly pours. And how parents take time to teach and encourage their children. These are just small examples, tiny acts of love, service and humanity. But they make all the difference in the world.
