Social Being

We are created to be a social being, as God is a social Being. And as the Three Divine Persons have no life whatsoever except in this relativity of action, so have we no life whatsoever except in relative actions towards others.

-Richard Meux Benson, SSJE (1824-1915)

What Good Will It Do?

"Thousands of starfish washed ashore. A little girl began throwing

                       them in the water so they wouldn't die.

'Don't bother dear', her mother said,

          'it won't make a difference.'

The little girl stopped for a moment and looked at

                          the starfish in her hand.

'It will make a difference to this one.' " 

As Followers of  the Way do we make,"... a difference to this one"?
