Reach Out and Touch Page 7
Reach out and touch some bodies hand make this world a better place if you can! These words ring in my ear from time to time as I remember Diana Ross singing this song in the past. I often pondered over these words and I wondered if we are truly putting these words into practice.
I woke up this morning and thought I should begin to write this book to let everyone know that we must reach out and touch and never stop reaching beyond ourselves to touch others. This message is imperative and crucial if we want to benefit from living.

If I can help somebody along the way then my living shall not be in vain. This gospel song is also another reminder that we were born to reach out and touch others.
We were born with the purpose to help others. We were born to impact lives whether we choose to help or hinder the choice we make will affect our own lives in a positive or negative way.
We are living in a time where the focus of self is becoming more evident. Most People tend to focus on themselves and what others can do for them. The focus is now on I and not you. They forgot about we and it’s all about me.

Don’t get me wrong there is nothing wrong with loving yourself, because God even tells us to Love our neighbors as we love ourselves. So this lets us know that we must embrace ourselves and love self in order to truly love others.
What I am addressing is most people have a sense of self and only self. They forgot about helping others. They are only concerned about what they have or what they can get out of life.
They lose touch with the gift of living and that is blessing others. We must come to the realization that it is not all about us and what we can get all of the time.
