So What Does It Mean To Make a Difference?


To me, making a difference happens in small ways. The simple things we do can make large ripples in the world. A simple idea like a lemonade stand has made millions for cancer research. The world needs more "good" in it. And it's the "simple good" that I'm referring to. There is a theory in science called the Chaos Theory (or butterfly effect). This theory suggests how simple things in nature can cause global effects on the environment. For example, the theory suggests how the flapping wings of a butterfly, causing a small whirl of wind, can cause an effect on a large ecosystem. This is a nice metaphor for making a difference in the world when things seem too challenging, or when we think the possible is impossible.

Love all the ideas that have been posted. Cynwyd is looking forward to help "making a difference."

Our class has been discussing what it means to make a difference. We talked about how one small thought or one small action can have a "ripple effect" and change something much bigger than the original thought or action. Our examples were a pebble in a pond, and Alex Scott.

We defined making a difference in many ways:
-helping others
-making things better for others
-doing something for someone else
-making the world different
-making someone smile when they are sad
-taking something that isn't so great and
making it better
-making the world better, safer, happier
-making something small into something big
-donating time, prayers, money, thoughts,
talents
-going out of your way to help others
-making someone feel better
-changing someone's life
-improving your community

MAKING A DIFFERENCE IS:
-STEPPING UP
-IS IMPORTANT
-IS POSITIVE

We learned a great deal about how one small idea, one small step, growing into something bigger and bigger. We learned that one person can really make a difference- and Alex Scott and her story is a fabulous example of that.

We are hoping that our efforts with the MAGPI project-our mini-stands, our actual stands, our web page at www.firstgiving.com/cynwydschool, our walk-a-thon and other community service projects-will help to make a difference for others as well as for ourselves.

YES! The ripple effect...that is part of what we were thinking with the "Lemon Drop" theme for this blog....Alex started with an idea and it was like a drop in a pond with the ripples reaching far and wide! I love that idea!

You do positive things to change the world. You help others out of the goodness of your heart. You are not looking for recognition. To make a change or to create something good out of bad!

Hello!
You may probably be very interested to know how one can make real money on investments.
There is no need to invest much at first.
You may begin to get income with a money that usually is spent
for daily food, that's 20-100 dollars.
I have been participating in one project for several years,
and I'm ready to share my secrets at my blog.

Please visit blog and send me private message to get the info.

P.S. I earn 1000-2000 per daily now.

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a thing, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I get now up to 2G a day , and I started with funny 500 bucks.
Right now, I'm very close at catching at last a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my web site to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of troubles when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Now, I feel good, I begin to get real income.
It gets down to select a proper partner who uses your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, and shares the income with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:
