The sound of music. The sound of someone telling you a joke. The sound of laugher. The sound of people having fun. Those are all sounds you love, you want to hear 24/7.
The worst, loudest sound of all, is no sound at all.
Some unfortunate people don't get the chance to hear.
We, my family, are very very lucky.
Not many people can say that. We can.
We want to share our luck. So every chance we get, we try to help people. Even while we are traveling.
One person who we met in a camp in Jordan was a refugee from the Syrian war. We gave him kindness and time. Now he is in a university in Canada. From this small act of kindness, we changed somebody's life.
Please do the same.
Remember it takes a big person to realize what they have and don't have compared to others.
