So here's a New Year's resolution that might be a smidge late. However, maybe it's not even a resolution so much as a way to really start living life to the fullest.

I recently had a conversation with someone discussing how to make the world a better place. What cheesy subject, right? Turns out it has been on my mind for the past week since I've had that discussion. No matter how hard I tried to think of something "different" or unique to write for my article this week, I was brought back to the idea of sharing my thoughts on what it means to impact someone's life in the best way possible.

We've all witnessed those gorgeous accounts of someone changing the life of another whether it be through financial aid, love, or making someone's dream come true, etc. But what about those small moments that are more life changing than we consider? What about the moments when someone walks into your life and changes it for the better by simply being in your life.

I'd like to once again quote one of my favorite lines in music from A Day to Remember that states, "Cause you've only got one life to lead so don't take for granted those little things // Those little things are all that we have."

Think about some of life's simplest moments, the ones you never saw coming. The times you received something so great, not a material something, but perhaps an emotional, mental or spiritual something. Have you been that for someone else? Could you be that for someone else? Would you take the time each day to ensure that you did one thing for at least one person to make them happier? Can you imagine the impact this would have on the world?

Selflessness is often overlooked and underrated. To be quite honest, we all do this. In a world that is so self-centered, constantly telling its people to do what is best for oneself, it's difficult to take the time and be something for someone else. Maybe they need a source of comfort, humor, love, encouragement. The list goes on. If we can provide just a little more selflessness in this world, the possibilities of creating a greater place to live just might increase exponentially.

Now I'm not saying this will cause world peace. I'm saying life is most definitely about all of those little things, and with them, we have the power to make someone's day that much brighter. We have the ability to be better, do better, and live better.

To do one thing every day that betters the life of someone else is quite the adventure. I hope you take the time to go on that adventure. Who knows, maybe you'll end up meeting your best friend, the love of your life, your "person," or some of the greatest people you'll ever know.
