We make the world....

"You are the people who are shaping a better world. One of the secrets of inner peace is the practice of compassion." -- Dalai Lama (1935 -)

We can decide to make the world that we live in. If we chip in with our little bit, the world would be lot better. It may be apt to take this oath, which was once told by Edward Everett Hale

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 that I can do.


We make the world in which we live
By what we gather and what we give,
By our daily needs and the things we say,
By what we keep or we cast away.

We make our world by the beauty we see
In a skylark's song or lilac tree,
In a butterfly's wing, in the pale moon's rise,
And the wonder that lingers in midnight skies.

We make our world by the life we lead,
By the friends we have, by the books we read,
By the pity we show in the hour of care,
By the loads we lift and the love we share.

We make our world by the goals we pursue,
By the heights we seek and the higher view,
By hopes and dreams that reach the sun,
And a will to fight till the heights are won.

What is the place in which we dwell,
A hut or a palace, a heaven or hell,
We gather and we scatter, we take and we give,
We make our world - and there we live,

Lets us all make an effort to make this WORLD of ours a better place.
