Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 466 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
When the first pilgrims came to this land from many parts of the world, and they arrived there, it was in most places, described as a desert. Now, a desert has two features. One, is no one can live there; and second, nothing can grow there. There is nothing positive there because of the type of living that it requires. Yet the pilgrims knew it and they decided to change this. Wherever they settled, they converted that part of the desert and made them into cities, households and population where even plants started growing, and they converted the physical desert into physical cities, a place where they could live with their families.
Now, the same lesson should be applied to when we travel. When you go places and you travel, and you’re away from home, even if it’s only for a day, you may feel as though you’re really traveling and it’s not that important to pay attention to what you do. You might say to yourself, I’m neither here nor there, why should I pay attention to what I do or how I act? I’m on the road, just leave me alone. Why should we bother? It’s just for a day or two. It’s a temporary place, it’s not permanent.
Comes this concept that lets us know that this is not correct. You have to illuminate the world wherever you are. When you travel, you must remember this lesson: that everything is by Divine Providence.
If you end up somewhere, even for one day, for a moment, or overnight, it’s because you were meant to be there in that specific place and time, and your whole life, wherever you are, must be to illuminate the world, whether you’re at home, or a campground, a hotel, airport, wherever you are, you are to illuminate your world and make the place a good place, a holy place. Whatever you do, act properly; use your talents, your knowledge, your wisdom, and all the things you know. Even though this is not your home, make that temporary stay and opportunity for you to illuminate that part of the world, an opportunity for you to make that place so much better than it is, and if it is great when you get there, make it even greater, because you are a remarkable person and you have the talent, the ability, the strength, the wisdom, the knowledge, and the possibility to do so.
So, be careful that when you travel, you don’t miss these opportunities to change yourself. Be the best that you can be and illuminate the world for the sake of everyone around you, including yourself.
