What is our responsibility to others? We are not necessarily called to do great works or to perform miracles, but we can improve the whole world by being consciously and deliberately joyful, with a positive, optimistic attitude toward everyone we encounter. Instead of waiting or expecting to be welcomed or acknowledged, in every social situation our personality should be graceful, warm and encouraging. This is what is known as being “the salt of the earth.”
