Once, while deep in prayer, I asked Great Spirit to please send help for all the hungry in the world. The answer I received was “Why do you think I put so many of you down there?”

We pray, we beg, we plead. We need love, we need food, we shelter, we need compassion. And, yet the answer is all around us. What we need is each other.

Each and every one of us has the power to give something. A smile, a sweater, a meal, a hug. These things heal the world. And, ourselves.

When give to someone else who needs, we see how very much we have. Gratitude is the key to happiness. Its all very simple. If we save each other, we save the world.
