Many Hands


Anyone can give a reason why they don’t want to be accountable for someone else. Many people have other agendas that don’t necessarily have a root of its own, and tending to someone else’s affairs would end up killing both parties involved. No one wants the responsibility and when it time to point the blame, fingers come from all directions. Then you have those that wait around to see what will happen and if it’s rewarding, they’ll want ownership. The story about, “The Little Red Hen”, comes to mind quite often. Little Red Hen went around asking those who were close to her to help bake a bread that everyone could partake in. And while she went around asking, everyone gave her a reason as to why they couldn't help. She eventually got fed up and decided to bake the bread herself and after it was done, there were many hands waiting. The story is fictional based but has real life content. How often do we look for others to help and when it counts there is no one around, but in the end they are all applauding?  No one can see the ending from the beginning, but it takes those that have keen sense to daylight to recognize when there’s a breaking in the day. Even if there are a few rough patches down the road there will eventually be a smooth ride ahead. Those people are known as “keepers”. They’ll stick it out not based on who you are, but due to the fact of what it will be.  Not only is this not the day an age to waste time, but it is not the time to waste opportunity. Cease moments in everyday and one of those moments will sooner or later pay off.
