It’s not my job to fix someone else
It is my job to be the radiance and splendor of Who I Am
It’s not my job to judge others’ mistakes
It is my job to be a role model of someone doing their best
It’s not my job to tell others how to live or work
It is my job to walk the path of love, balance, and integrity
It’s not my job to show others when they’ve messed up
It is my job to remind others of their greatness and beauty
It’s not my job to point out when others are wrong
It is my job to speak my truth even when it is difficult to do so
It’s not my job to ask “What’s in it for me?”
It is my job to wake up every morning and ask, “How then shall I serve?”
*********
For a moving and inspiring video of someone who faced adversity and didn’t give up on himself-
Here are the lyrics to his song:
In my imagination I see a fair world,
Everyone lives in peace and in honesty there.
I dream of souls that are always free,
…Like the clouds that fly,
Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.
I dream of souls that are always free,
Like clouds that fly,
Full of humanity in the depths of the soul.
