Day #18 Day # 18 in the 40 in 40 line up was September 11th. As you know I was with Victoria Caras. Peter Schroeder, a man who makes a difference daily and a partner in What One Man Can Do wrote the following and posted it to our facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=326600162453&ref=ts. I could not have written anything more succinct.
9.11 reminds me that we can do astounding things. We can make such differences that life on this planet, as we know it, is never the same. And just as crucial, we can make a change in our relationship, family, community or city that has a profound impact on all it touches. Remember, each action we take, each word we say, has consequences, and lasting ramifications - a long shelf-life. And it is always OUR CHOICE! Today of all days, take a good look at what one man can do - in the name of creation or the name of destruction. Just as a child can build a house with Legos, a child can knock it down. Just as an adult can adopt a child, raise a child and love a child, an adult can abuse a child, and scar a child. This 9.11, you are invited to choose to create, choose to love. Please don't choose to destroy or abuse. And almost as bad, please don't choose to do nothing. Instead, make this a beautiful day for yourself and someone else.
Action Taken: Choice. What do you choose?
