I remember a time when I lived in NYC when I would literally pass hundreds of homeless people sleeping on cardboard boxes in the middle of winter, over top of the subway vents, so that they could stay warm. My mind would wonder how I could help all of them.
When I first moved there, I spent a great deal of my time and money trying to help the homeless. I realized, however, soon after that I could not take on the job of helping all of the homeless in New York. I could not shoulder that problem alone. In fact, this problem of the homeless was not mine to shoulder at all. Here is what I learned.
When you think about it, how much of the world’s problem can we shoulder without feeling a change in our own peace and joy? Yes, each of us has a certain moral duty and specific discerning power to lead us to the exact place and person to help, if that is our course for the day. If we look at the entire picture of need and try to be the ONE who saves the world or any part of it, we will be disappointed in our lack of stamina and power. This is not the intention of Spirit. Ernest Holmes says:
“Man does not exist for making an impression on his environment. (But) he does exist to express himself in and through his environment.”
A vast difference exists in this approach to life. If we think we must be a star or a great “anything” to make the most impact in our lives, we are operating on an ego level. The only action Spirit asks us to take is to be open for the Spirit to flow through us daily and to touch those who are in and on our path. We can do this easily and gratefully, because the people we touch will actually be on our path to whatever it is we are doing in that moment, on that day.
We do not have to make a special effort to save the world. We do, however, need to offer our humanness and our experiential life as an offering to the world and let Spirit work through us to help individuals on our path. This is your duty, should we decide to accept it.
It is quite a burden lifted when we realize that we do not have to move the world. The world will move anyway. This does not lessen our social duty. It simply clarifies it and parries it down to Spirit’s significant choices It leads us to in the NOW.
