Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
​
Margaret Mead

The world is full of wonder and beauty, my friends, and lessons on how to live life to the fullest are all around us. It’s like a giant scavenger hunt, and the prize at the end is glorious. We just have to take a moment to notice the clues, decipher their meaning, and collect our treasures along the way.

I have a favorite homily, a favorite season and a favorite poem.  My favorite season is dandelion season. My favorite homily is that declaration by Margaret Mead.  I know she is right, because I work with small groups of thoughtful, committed citizens, and they are changing the world.

If you would like to hear how that happens, please listen in to the optimistic voices podcast episode “Yes, Melody, We Can Change the World!"
