Altruism may be your watchword today as you seek out opportunities to mentor those in need of guidance, lift the spirits of downtrodden individuals, and help others achieve the level of abundance you yourself have achieved. You may feel particularly considerate and concerned with the welfare of your loved ones, the individuals you work with, your acquaintances, and individuals within your community. If you find yourself hesitating to share your abundance and intellectual resources for fear that your contribution won't make a difference, consider that your efforts will likely have both a direct and an indirect impact. When others observe the results of your endeavors today, they will likely feel compelled to follow your example and share their blessings with people in need.

When you express your altruism in action, you'll discover that within you lies the potential to become an instrument of positive change. Many individuals are overwhelmed by the suffering and poverty they see in the world and, as a result, cannot fathom that their philanthropic contributions are truly meaningful. The spread of altruism, however, has both practical and emotional components. Your selfless service may only directly impact the lives of a select number of people, yet your influence will abound. Your charitable works will extend the range of kindness in the world, touch people's hearts, and inspire others to do what they can to make the planet a better place. The gift you give those in need today will help you recognize the positive influence you wield.
