Hi Marie, agreed! The idea of "Make the World a Better Place" starts with you. Everything you do including brushing your teeth, eating well, taking care of your health and well-being, etc is act of making the world better. So the guideline can be applied to the simplest activities in your own life as well as others. Random acts of kindness, smiling, sincere compliments, etc all count in making the world a better place. Bottom line: apply the idea in any area where you have influence, no matter how small or how great. It will make you feel good about yourself and this whole business called life.

 

Good point John. And good afternoon to you too. Hope your having a good day.

Fish are fewer now too ,So Tony it may not be all you. Also according to where you're fishing.
