Daily Divine: How can a Householder help?

​Most of us are Householders: people walking the spiritual path while deeply immersed in work and family.
 
We work jobs of all kinds.
We take care of children, partners, parents.
We take care of extended family.
We take care of others in the community around us.
Some of us are healer and teachers, helping in one way.
Others are practical helpers, helping in other ways.
 
It’s all valid, and all valued.

And even though we have our hands full with this entire helping and supporting and lifting up of those we love, we want to do more. 

We want to help the world, but we don’t know how. 

Here is one suggestion  from The 33 Lessons in my book Writing the Divine:
 
“The true hero quests within.There is no dragon to slay. There is no war to win. There is not mountain to climb. There is only the landscape of what is within, which is you in the Universe. Which is you as one of the now of the Now. Which is also you, as an earth being, with an earth heart, Surrounding and infinitely connecting to all living beings. Thus, the hero’s quest is for no chalice, no sword, no banner. The hero’s quest in this time is for connection; it is for compassion, it is for love. This is the task of this world you are in now.“—The 33 Lessons
