I normally blog about major holidays and zeitgeist happening in the world, things like Juneteenth and Father’s Day. It’s been difficult to expand beyond my sphere of control though recently, as my life has taken a busy turn.

It’s a part of our experience, and we have to accept that we all sometimes focus on our own circles more than the big picture. It’s impossible to consider all of humanity all of the time.

That’s why I advocate for the one percent solution: if each of us can contribute one percent of our energy and time to the greater world, we all reap the benefits. One percent of eight billion people can change the world.
