A Season For Nonviolence - Day 22, Feb 20: MISSION

DAY 22 Feb. 20: The thought for today is MISSION. “My life is my message” said Gandhi. Gandhi’s mission was to be nonviolent. What do you want to stand for in your life? Our mission, and our deepest need is for the joy that comes with loving and being loved, with knowing we are of genuine service to others. If we are determined to stick to what is really important in life, then from day to day we will see that the unimportant pastimes, the distractions that lead us away from our purpose, will gradually weaken their hold.

Today: I will write down what I stand for in my life. I will note at least one way I can show, through action, that I stand for my beliefs. I will develop a personal mission statement and draw a picture of myself living my mission. I will share my mission with at least three other people.
