With all that takes place in our lives, it can sometimes be easy to overlook the fact that we're part of something greater than ourselves, the greater good. Because of our tendency to forget this, we might make decisions in our lives that don't reflect that responsibility that comes with this belonging.
Contributing to the greater good doesn't have to be all about self-sacrifice. When you serve the greater cause you also serve your greater good. There is nothing that you cannot do for your highest good that will not benefit the good of all.
