Doing good holds the power to transform us on the inside, and then ripple out in ever-expanding circles that positively impact the world at large.
positive-thinking simple deeds-done
Doing Good is a simple and universal vision. A vision to which each and every one of us can connect and contribute to its realisation. A vision based on the belief that by doing good deeds, positive thinking and affirmative choice of words, feelings and actions, we can enhance goodness in the world.

Even a smile is a good deed.

differences kind-deeds volunteer

The Ahmadinejads of the world, the bin Ladens of the world, will not change their ways, regardless of how hard we try to explain to them that peace begins with them.
