The Choir of Humanity

Our earth is filled with a multitude of voices, many speaking together at the same time.

Can we liken this (us) to a choir– singing in performance together, yet each having our own voice…some singing soprano, alto, tenor or bass.

Everyone singing together….and then a hush while the baritone brings forth.

A well trained choir sings together showcasing each other under the directorship of the conductor, who has studied the score and thought in advance how each voice and section can best be utilized for the good of the whole, and bring the most delight to the listeners.

If we–each individual human–starting only with ourselves, began practicing our singing to join in and bring out the best from each other… under the infinite leadership of our creator, who started this whole choir, just think what an impact we could be!!!

What might our world look like if that happened ???

…if I practiced my singing today–in the car on my way to work…practiced while I walked the dog with my friend…practiced while I thought about my family, or while on my break at work…

How would my singing, my voice, help lift another’s voice to concert pitch… in key with others in their section, and make the earth a better place.

….just some thoughts.

Provide for Your Future

The next generation…your kids, your grandkids are your/our future!

Driving home this week I passed many red, yellow and orange maple trees…huge specimens planted decades ago…now towering in beauty!

The planters of these trees are all long gone and cannot enjoy their finale, but we can, because they cared to look ahead.

Past generations of land owners often planted trees for future generations’ benefit, knowing they wouldn’t be ready in their lifetime.

How comforting to realize you had been thought of by previous people and generations who planned and did things not for themselves, but for the good of those to come after them.

I want to be part of the forward thinking generation able to lay up things, ideas, processes, implementations, habits, plans, that will make life better for my successors.

I want to pass that forward to make their lives less complex and easier to enjoy and live while they raise the next members of humanity.

Will you plan with me?
