A True Hero and What We Can All Learn From Him

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it's easy to get wrapped up in our own endeavors and forget about some of the true struggles and issues that are going on all around us. When I watched this video, it immediately snapped some perspective back into my mindset; reminding me that trivial issues I fret over are pretty inconsequential in the larger scope of life.

This man and what he has dedicated his life to is inspirational beyond words. He is a true hero in my book and I believe that we can all learn so much from his compassion and commitment to making a real difference in the lives of so many people. People who are crying out for someone to acknowledge them and love them.

No matter where you live, there are people struggling with the issues of poverty, hunger, and homelessness. Let's make a pledge to actually act on our intentions. Nothing can give your life more meaning than making a difference in someone else's.

With love, Jinxi
