Generosity

It's been quite some time since my last post. I haven't forgotten, but have tried to!


I'm not a real big fan of writing. It's time consuming and painful for me to do. But, I realize I have so much to say to people and it only makes sense to share it here.



Although the economy may be suffering and people are not able to give financially as they once were, I have seen an incredible amount of generosity right here in my back yard. People are giving of their time . . . something that is even more valuable than money.

It is so easy to do small things that make a difference to people. If we can model this to our children, just imagine what it would be like if acts of kindness and generosity become habitual.

• Hold a door open for someone
• Look at someone in the eye and smile and say hello
• Give change to the person in front of you at the supermarket when you see them searching for it
• Bring the garbage can from the curb for a neighbor
• Put the morning newspaper on your neighbor's front porch if it's thrown on their lawn
• Pick up and throw away a piece of trash that is on the ground
• Visit a nursuring home and share some baked goods

This is just a list I came up with while sitting here. Obviously, there is so much more you can do.

I'm not saying anything you haven't heard a thousand times. But, what do you DO when you hear these things?

TAKE ACTION NOW!

It's so easy and quick . . . do something nice for someone TODAY and tell me about it!
