Earlier t
his week, we experienced another one of those cold, blistery, and very windy, wintery days. Returning home, after bravely venturing out into that frigid air, I happened upon a trash dumpster that belonged to one of our neighbors. The wind had knocked it over blowing it into the middle of my side of the road. I passed it before reminding myself that to be truly neighborly, I should stop and return it to their driveway. It didn’t take much time to remedy the situation, but it would have been quite easy to drive around it and just leave it laying in the road for someone else to hit with their vehicle. This is an example of the simple acts of kindness that I desire to develop as a habit this year.
Is there some simple little act of kindness you can do today to make this world a better place?
With so many folks unemployed or struggling financially these days, it seemed fitting and time to make a food donation. The church we attend operates a small food pantry supplying many families with a bag or two of groceries each month. Even if you are not able to donate much, by looking for the really good sales at the store, your donation is stretched and can at least help out a little. Consider finding a food pantry in your local area to donate a few non-perishable food items.
