What It Really Means To Go The Extra Mile For Someone
The stress and strain of constantly being connected can sometimes take your life -- and your well-being -- off course. GPS For The Soul can help you find your way back to balance.
When people do more than they have to, and do so with an attitude of generosity, they give of themselves in ways that lift all of humanity. The heart grows tender when we extend ourselves beyond what's expected. Going the extra mile is a vital ingredient that lifts our mood, allowing hopefulness to rule.
There are everyday, ordinary, unassuming people everywhere who demonstrate the joy of offering assistance without expecting anything in return. They see giving as a blessing because of the enriching feeling they receive while lending a helping hand.
This would be the most desirable state of the world, however look at our track record. Maybe it's too much to expect, genuine regard, true happiness to see others happy, supporting your positive progressive acquaintances. Even though life is what it is, I still have faith, I must believe that people at their core are not all self serving, or heartless.
I still have to ask, what has brought us to become so trapped in ourselves? Where is our pride in community? Where has our compassion for others gone? What's up with that?
