Mahatma Gandhi was asked by a reporter, "Sir, when do you take a vacation?" Gandhi replied, "I’m on vacation everyday!"Each Monday, Gandhi took the day in silence to commune with God. Nothing could make him speak. Even when he was arrested he wrote instructions to his followers, but he did not speak. Gandhi practiced forgiveness. In South Africa, he was stabbed by a would be assassin. Gandhi said he would not take legal action against this man but sent him only love and the man became his follower.
"Let us be the change we want to see." GandhiI find this man inspiring. That I could be more like him every day.
