Each of us needs other people to watch out for us. We should look out for each other’s interest, not just our own. Today, it’s all about me-my needs, my interests, my wants and my ambitions. You must look out for others too.
Is anyone looking out for you? Does anyone have your back? You need a community of people who will be with you when you’re going through tough times. You need a community that will not let you get discouraged, depressed or quit.
I remember the days hanging out with my friends. We would praise each other when we did something good for each other. The good deed may have occurred on the playing field, on the block or at our homes. We would acknowledge this deed by praising each other with three words, “Good Looking Out!”
In these tough economic times we need someone at work, home or play to say “Good Looking Out!” Many people are out of work. Many people lost their homes. Many people are not enjoying life.
Many of us go at it alone. You can try, but you can’t live life well on your own. We all need other people. All of us need each other. What’s more important is that each of us needs all of us.
Is there a place where you can go and surround yourself with others willing and wanting to walk with you, work with you and watch out for you? I can think of a few places. But there is a place where you can go. Not only on Sunday, but everyday. You will be eager to get to work. You will grow by helping others help themselves. You can create life long relationships.
Imagine yourself a snowflake. On your own you can’t make a difference. When you stick together with a lot of other snowflakes, you can paralyze a city.
As you walk through life, you’re not supposed to do everything on your own. You need other people to walk and work alongside you.
