Everything You Do Matters

Not my own article, but I like the idea and agree with it.

Everything You Do Matters
The Ripple Effect

In a world of six billion people, it’s easy to believe that the only way to initiate profound transformation is to take extreme action. Each of us, however, carries within us the capacity to change the world in small ways for better or worse. Everything we do and think affects the people in our lives, and their reactions in turn affect others. As the effect of a seemingly insignificant word passes from person to person, its impact grows and can become a source of great joy, inspiration, anxiety, or pain. Your thoughts and actions are like stones dropped into still waters, causing ripples to spread and expand as they move outward. The impact you have on the world is greater than you could ever imagine, and the choices you make can have far-reaching consequences. You can use the ripple effect to make a positive difference and spread waves of kindness that will wash over the world.

Should the opportunity arise, the recipient of a good deed will likely feel compelled to do a good deed for someone else. Someone feeling the effects of negative energy will be more likely to pass on that negative energy. One act of charity, one thoughtful deed, or even one positive thought can pass from individual to individual, snowballing until it becomes a group movement or the ray of hope that saves someone’s life. Every transformation, just like every ripple, has a point of origin. You must believe in your ability to be that point of origin if you want to use the ripples you create to spread goodness. Consider the effect of your thoughts and actions, and try to act graciously as much as possible.

A smile directed at a stranger, a compliment given to a friend, an attitude of laughter, or a thoughtful gesture can send ripples that spread among your loved ones and associates, out into your community, and finally throughout the world. You have the power to touch the lives of everyone you come into contact with and everyone those people come into contact with. The momentum of your influence will grow as your ripples moves onward and outward. One of those ripples could become a tidal wave of positivity.

No Love Song

you smell like apples.

like apricot tree blooming by the sea.

brought you inside.
locked in my mind and lost that tiny key.

so many stories.
so many poems, drawings, other stuff.

so many stories.
and none of them is love.


you are a sunrise.
but sun is slowly moving to sunset.

stars all around you.
you shake them off to fill my empty head.

i want to touch you.
you're unprotected precious piece of art.

i want to touch you.
you break and fall apart.


there's no love.
it has been proven.

there's no you.
just blurry dreams.

there's no hope.
i keep on moving.

and every day i clearly see:
there's no love.

Fine.

OK, OK I'm not gonna whine anymore :)

Free

Tell me

Where should I be

If you know it -

Please disclose it.

That's all I'm asking for.

Place to fit right in.

Even for a moment.

To be closer.

To be honest maybe.

Music will always be.

Even if we don't notice.

It's all around us.

It was there long before us.

Hours are making us think.

Even if we don't want to.

There's nothing else to do

Before we're free.

Spotless mind

Erase me that part of my brain,

Or send me someone else to pertain

To the mold of my heart

To grow together and not apart.

So I don't have to pretend.

Both the lover and the friend.

So I don't have to explain.

Pure love and no stupid games.

Can you do this for me?

That's all I need until I'm free.

Someone to forgive when she's wrong.

And later dedicate a song.

It's maybe 60 years to go.

I need someone - that's all I know.

If there's noone - it's ok,

Erase me that part of my brain.

The Lullaby

Come to me tonight.

I hear your silent cry.

Show yourself to me.

Step out of the dark -

You'll see how many stars

Give their light for us.

Look straight ahead and

Hold my hand

I'll prove you there's a happy end

For everyone who dreams like you and me.

You'll see.

I know it's tough.

At least today.

For every step there's three to take.

But... tomorrow we'll be fine.

Yes... tomorrow you'll be fine.

Ultimate

Now that I know you're not for me

The seconds seem so long.

Every night I can't fall asleep thinking:

"Where did I go wrong?"

And all I knew about you

Is that I need you in my veins.

Without you life is so easy

And yet so hard in every single way.

That was my ultimate attempt

To hold you back from being free.

It is so odd to see you flying high,

You're flying without me.

You were my ultimate heartbeat,

My ultimate hope,

My ultimate chance

To find real love.

And now it's all downhill

From where I stand

My ultimate days

Had come to the end.
