Change the World

Today I'm gonna try and change the world
Johnny Reid







TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD
GONNA TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME
I'VE MADE MY RESOLUTION
I'VE OPENED UP MY EYES
TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD

I'M GONNA SAY HELLO TO MY NEIGHBOR
GREET HIM WITH A SMILE
SHAKE THE HAND OF A STRANGER
SIT AND TALK FOR A WHILE
TELL SOMEONE I LOVE THEM
FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD

(REPEAT CHORUS)

GONNA MAKE SURE MY CHILDREN

KNOW THERES A RIGHT AND WRONG
I'LL NEVER TURN MY BACK
ON THOSE OF US WHO NEED SOMEONE
I'M GONNA TRY TO SEE MYSELF
THROUGH ANOTHERS EYES
TODAY IM GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD

(REPEAT CHORUS)

TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD
TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD
NOT FOR ME, BUT FOR THOSE I'LL LEAVE BEHIND
I'VE MADE MY RESOLUTION
CHANGE IT ONE DAY AT TIME
TODAY I'M GONNA TRY AND CHANGE THE WORLD

Muslim man at Costco asking for Charity


March 28, 2011

He came up to me in Costco with a medical prescription. He said his prescription is for $28.00 and he only has $8.00 and something. He wanted $20.00. I was reluctant because I was thinking, how does he afford a Costco membership and he doesn't have $20.00 for his prescription. I gave him $10.00. Afterwards, I felt I should have gone with him to the Pharmacy counter and bought his medicine for him. InshaAllah I hope next time Allah will guide me to do the right thing.


Gather the loose change and give to the needy people

March 16, 2011 - Muslim woman with Hijab at St. George Station with an empty coffee cup begging. I had 2 packets of these coins in my handbag. Into her coffee cup they went. She looked at me and smiled. Her smile was sad.
