The Outpouring

"If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way." - Napoleon Hill

A waterfall is one of nature's most breathtaking wonders. The rhythmic sound of water cascading down and crashing onto the rocks below creates a sense of peace and calm that resonates deeply within us. 

Just like a waterfall, we all long for an outpouring of blessings in our lives — abundant, steady, and overflowing. A waterfall is never empty; it is constantly flowing, constantly giving, fuelled by continuous source. 

In life, we can choose what we want to be. Do you want to be like a lake — still, contained, and unmoving? Or do you want to be like a waterfall - dynamic, giving, and full of life? The waterfall reminds us that true abundance comes not from holding back, but from flowing freely and embracing life with movement and purpose. 

My Journey:

For many years, I lived like a still lake — gathering knowledge, accumulating resources, but never doing much beyond that. I stayed within my comfort zone, reluctant to step out and use what I had for something greater.

But everything started to change when I traveled beyond the suburbs of major cities and into rural areas of other countries. There, I met people who had very little in material wealth, yet lived with a deep sense of contentment and simplicity. Their lives were focused on learning, growing, and uplifting their communities — not just themselves.

In recent years, I spent time in a place that serves as a home to hundreds of children. I joined in to help however I could — working the land, making bricks by hand, and organising their workspaces. For someone used to city life, labouring under the hot sun was tough. But the challenge was nothing compared to the warmth I felt from the people.

The gratitude on their faces said it all. They did not care that I was only there for a short while — what mattered was that I came and became part of their world, even briefly.

Being among them filled me with a joy and love I had never experienced before. In that space, I discovered the true meaning of gratitude—not in having more, but in giving, connecting, and being present.
