What You Change Affects the World (KB)

We never know how our individual transformation affects the big picture. Every time we make a positive change in ourselves, we add to the cumulative positive energy in the cosmos. This is why nobody in this world can say, “Well, what can I do? I’m just one person...” The changes we make don't need to be big or complicated either. Sometimes it's as simple as being quiet. Let’s say, for example, that we are the kind of person who always has the “right” answer for our family and friends. The next time we have some advice to give, we might try zipping our lips and not saying anything. Yes, we may feel that it’s a kind of sacrifice on our part to keep our mouth shut, but in making that sacrifice, we are going against our "automatic" nature and therefore creating a space for the Light to enter the situation. Indeed, the smallest and simplest changes that we make or acts of kindness that we do, such as making somebody feel better because we care enough to reach out and talk to them, can ripple out and have a lasting impact on the world.
