Tip the Scale

"One should see the world, and see himself as a scale with an equal balance of good and evil. When he does one good deed the scale is tipped to the good - he and the world is saved. When he does one evil deed the scale is tipped to the bad - he and the world is destroyed."
~ Maimonides

I came across this quote last night and it resonated deeply. I tend to live life from a place of positivity, optimism, hope. However, I am keenly aware that not everyone does.

Positive people live in a positive world whereas negative people live in a negative one. Same world. It is all about perspective. If we truly believed that every action can make an impact, how might it change us, our approach, our perspective?

I'm a believer that our intentions drive our actions... if we each live, intentionally, with positivity and compassion, we can collectively tip the scale to the good.
