Thanksgiving just past and the next thing that is on everyone’s mind is Christmas/ Hanukkah. Tis the season for giving. I’ve already been emptying out my change to the Goodwill bell ringers. I always donate at the registers of grocery stores because they are usually raising money for some sort of good cause. There are more ways to GIVE than just money. Since money is so tight for a lot of people it’s understandable if you don’t have the means to donate money. There are many ways to GIVE. Starting with your closet. Clean it out! Half the stuff in there you don’t wear, and probably haven’t worn in a good year or so. Asking yourself if you would wear it again is the first sign that you wont. Put it all in a bag and donate it, because I guarantee they will find someone who will wear it. Now, look in your food cabinets. See those cans of food that have been sitting there collecting dust? Go give them to a canned food drive. There is someone out there that would love to eat it. GIVE back to the earth. Plant a tree. If you don’t want to plant a tree you can help the environment by picking up litter. If your “to cool” to pick up litter you can help by conserving water and electricity. GIVE your time by volunteering at an after school program or even an animal shelter. GIVE back to your friends and family. The smallest gestures go a long way. Offer a friend a ride, buy them some ice cream or take them to a movie. The smallest gestures of appreciation leave the biggest impact on people. If you can’t do any of that you can at least GIVE someone a complement. You can make someone’s day with a simple complement, especially someone who would least expect it. That’s all. I just wanted to encourage everyone to GIVE in some way. Giving a little goes a long way. J Love, Live, GIVE, More. <3

ReplyDeleteWonderful blog! This is the time of year to put egos aside and to let your true colors show. There are many people out there especially in these tough economic times without food, water, clothes, a home, etc. Donate whatever you can! Help the less fortunate! Among the organizations you can donate to include The Salvation Army, United Way, the Red Cross, FEMA, etc. This the season to give, not to sit back doing nothing!
