If I could give one bit of advice to young people ...

Today, I saw a quote from Mitch Albom's book, Tuesdays with Morrie. The book chronicled his weekly meetings with his beloved college professor, Morrie Schwartz, as the professor progressively declined due to ALS - Lou Gehrig's Disease.

The professor said, "Do the kind of things that come from the heart, When you do, you won't be dissatisfied, you won't be envious, you won't be longing for somebody else's things. On the contrary, you'll be overwhelmed with what comes back."

If people -- of any age -- followed Morrie's advice, there would be less anger, divisiveness, finger-pointing and hatred in today's world.

There would be more joy, more people who believe in their own goodness.

Do what you love. Give from the heart. Focus on what gives you joy, not what others have. Love and protect one another, regardless of the color of their skin, whether they wear blue and carry a badge, or are simply your next-door neighbor you've never met. Reach out. Show them you care. #TuesdayswithMorrie
