No matter what, we always have the power to choose hope over despair, engagement over apathy, kindness over indifference, love over hate.

As you put your sights on your goals — no matter how great and compelling they are — as you look into the distance, don’t forget what is right in front of you today. No matter how great your dreams, no matter how great your destiny, the biggest thing you can do in any day is a small act of kindness.
