I'm trying to cut back
on watching TV,
surfing the internet,
even reading books.
When I am doing one of those things,
I am perhaps staying out from under foot
and not causing trouble,
but neither am I contributing to the world around me.
I'm trying to figure out
more ways each day
to add beauty,
kindness,
creativity
and something interesting
to a world full of noise and clutter and meanness.
Even if it just means sharing
a picture in the woods
celebrating that spring does come
whether we watch for it or not.
I will ask, not for guilt or pressure,
but simply as a reminder
and some focus:
as my presence here added anything worthwhile
to the world today?
