We’re collecting used toys for our annual toy drive. “Sparkles” as I named him, needed a couple of stitches in his collar. Once that was done, he was good as new and ready to continue a life of adventure with some lucky young friend.
Why not make the effort to fix things that need just a little fixing? Let’s keep recycling and reusing , creating new life from old, like the fresh, new journeys of a pebble thrown into the bottom of a pond.
The “if it’s broken, fix it” theory can apply to all aspects of our lives: our individual selves, attitudes, relationships, jobs, houses, systems, hierarchies, etc. It’s simply a matter of seeing a thing or situation for what it actually is and taking action to correct it. It took about fifteen stitches to fix Sparkle’s collar, but each stitch brought him closer to being repaired and closer to venturing out into the world to give a child love.
So, if we take and treasure each little tiny step, we are well on the way to becoming whole or fixed and repaired. And, each little tiny step brings us closer to victory and its accompanying joy.
