Important things could be happening around here very soon (she says cryptically) and I don't want to lose sight of the fact that even small steps are worth making.
So my thought for this week is from an all-time favourite of mine, Mother Teresa.
'I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples'.
All of us have a part to play in making society a better place. There seems to be a lot we can do at this time of year, with reverse advent calendars, and helping the homeless with warm gifts and such like, but this kind of help is needed all year round.
There's other less tangible help which is also always needed, such as helping to spread understanding of both visible and invisible disabilities. Education is key; attitudes can often (but sadly not always) be changed when people understand a little more. I hope that Sasha has sent out many ripples which are reaching far and wide.
The photo is a little teaser for a post which I hope to be able to write soon... Sasha the mermaid!
