There is a religious
viewpoint suggesting that I must find the elect or chosen few and
bring them out of a corrupt world that is on its way to destruction. This
separatist suggestion appears narrow and contrived.
I am energized instead by the viewpoint that I
belong to the human family, which can use some help. My purpose and motivation
lie in contributing improvement, sharing whatever I find to be good. To
encourage others, it helps to be self-confident but not self-righteous. Growth
is learning the viewpoints, weaknesses, and strengths of my family members so
that I can understand and uplift them.
We are a disparate group but there is no need
for discord. We may regard earning a living as a struggle but there is
never reason to regard it as fighting. We are not competing against each
other; our survival is collaborative. The foundation of mutual success is
called love, and I love my family.
