Peace must begin somewhere, and it must begin with one individual. Spiritual light has always entered consciousness through one individual so permeated with truth that a dozen disciples here, or a half dozen there, have caught hold of it, and then from them come the fifty, the two hundred, and the two thousand. No one can be the light of the world: he can be only the light that sparks the light in others until it spreads around the world. So it is that we become that one in our household, that one in our neighborhood, and, depending on the depth and degree of our own love, we can become the one to a whole nation or a group of nations. Why not? It always begins with one.
~ Joel S. Goldsmith, A Parenthesis In Eternity
