Installment #3 of 4 from the book of short thoughts from "How many days of the week can be extraordinary? 7!", written and compiled by Dan Zadra & Kobi Yamada:
"Brighten your little corner of the world.
"Started by a dream he had in which he saw himself as a softly glowing beam of light, moving endlessly through a huge crowd, a man decided to adopt a philosophy. And his life was never the same.
"'I can't control how people are treated in the world,' he said, 'but I can control how they are treated in my little corner of it.
"Each day, I know for certain that I can bring a little warmth and light to anyone who comes within my personal '10-foot-zone'. My philosophy is that everyone has their own 10-foot zone. What a world this will be when all those little 10-foot beams of light finally branch and connect.'

"Don't spend your precious time asking, 'Why isn't the world a better place?' It will only be time waster. The question to ask is, 'How can I make it better?' to that there is an answer.
~ Leo Buscaglia
