CRUCIAL BLOG ENTRY #17
One thing that President Barack Obama has done since taking office is attempt to bridge the gap between the West and the Muslim world by offering an ear to listen to concerns and a hand to reach out in compromise.
Obama has a vison of bringing people together from various religions, races and parts of the world and if we look back to last weeks inauguration and the focus of attention and celebration that it inspired all over the world, I think that for once there is hope out there as long as we all participate in the process.
We can do that by looking close to home to see how we can influence positive change in our neighbourhoods, communities and cities. We all have the ability to give, be kind and help-out those who might need it, and I am not talking necessarily about monetary donations, but in donating ones time for a couple of hours here and there.
Time is the one gift that each of us can give in the spirit of "oneness."
Keep it Crucial.
