About This Quote
You may be poor, but important; uneducated, but wise; lowly, but noble; simple, but insightful; and ordinary, but great. These words tell us that we all have the capacity to make a difference to other people’s lives. There is a saying that goes: “It takes a village to raise a child.” This means that we can only do our best as individuals if we work together as a team. Life is tough, and life often gets in the way of our efforts to help others.
It can be hard to take time out from our busy lives to volunteer at the soup kitchen or the orphanage. However, everyone has the power to support those who need it most. We don’t have to wait for someone else to do something for us – we can do it for ourselves and for others too!
