Existence Within the Darkness of Mere Being
“….the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light of meaning in the darkness of mere being.”- Carl Gustav Jung
Pass on a little sunshine
Brighten someone’s day
We all know that the rampant headlines
Are slowly killing our hope
One industry at a time
One job at a time
It only takes a little effort to make a difference in someone’s life
Here are a couple of recent instances where someone has stepped up to the plate to make a difference:
- A local jeweler is giving away 100 silver heart pendants to anyone who can show need via a foreclosure notice or pink slip
- A local township community theater is putting on a Broadway Review of love songs for Valentine’s Day-for FREE
- A senior citizen triples her tip to the nail salon tech because by 2:00 p.m. she was her first and only customer of the day
- A local family-owned butcher shop sends out a plea to help keep their business alive, by including for the first time, dollar-off purchase coupons in a mass mailing to the community
What can you do to brighten another’s day; to give someone renewed hope in humanity or just to give someone the gift of a smile?
If we all would reach out and shed a little light on the darkness that surrounds us,
