Dear Brothers and Sisters,

You have known very well about the problems of the country and of the world. For the world, conflicts and wars are always so prominent for everyone to see, though they constitute probably only 1/10 of the world’s problems. Just google “current conflicts and wars of the world @wikipedia”, you will see so many countries with so many warring issues. About the country, you can see every day on the news: the poor, the unemployed, the homeless, the disabled, the sick, the corrupt, the oppressors, the oppressed…

Many people don’t want to hear about these depressing things. However, the more problems happen around us, the more we need to be active in solving the problems. The more people are active, the more problems are solved and reduced.

1. You cannot say these problems are too big for me and to far from me, I cannot do anything about them.

Of course, you can. The best and easiest thing for you to do is praying. You always can talk to God/ Buddha/ Allah/ Heaven every day: “Dear …, please help stop these wars all over the world” or “Dear…, please help the poor of this country. Please lift them up.”

Praying is the numero-uno method to produce the strongest positive energy. Say, if you do politics, you produce some positive energy, but you also produce a lot of negative energy from beating up your “enemies.” (Whenever you do anything worthwhile in politics, there will be a bunch of politicians trying to stop you and hit you on the head. Why? I don’t know. I am not a politician, so I don’t understand the nutty way politicians think and act).

Praying produces only positive energy and zero negative energy. That is why in many religions there are monks, priests, and nuns who spend almost all their awake time to pray and meditate. They know that praying and meditating create strong positive energy for the world.

When you pray, your mind is quiet and positive, so the mind generates quiet positive energy, which is the pure and strong  energy, without any negativity weakening it. You are the first person benefits from this strong energy, and the world around you benefits next. But the energy flow doesn’t stop just around you. It continues to spread out like light, moving far and non-stop.

Praying is so strong that most people involved in other types of activities also choose praying as their most essential activity.

2. Beside praying, of course there are many other activities you can do to help the world, such as opening or joining the forums on the issues you want to focus on. Just talking about the problems is enough to generate knowledge and positive energy to contribute to fixing the problem.

Or writing about the problems on the Internet or newspapers to raise awareness about the problems, for people to know about the issues.

Or sending letters to government officials to share your thoughts on the issues
…
When you want to get involved, you will see the way to involve.

The main point is, we need to be active in solving the country’s problems and the world’s problems. That is activism – actively working to make the world that we live in better every day.

If we don’t have such a positive activism, the bad and negative people will drag our country and our world down to the mud.

Each one of us needs to actively work, in our capacity, to protect and better our country and our world.

Wish everyone be active at all time.

With compassion,

Hoành
