Friday's Dream: Pay It Forward

Today I was at the grocery store, and a man ahead of me offered me to go ahead because I only had a few items. This got me thinking about how there are some very genuine, kind people who still live by the phrase "Do onto others". With that in mind, I took our bags from my Spring Cleaning (up to ten now) of used clothes and donated them to the Canadian Diabetes Society.

This is a good start, but I think I can do better. With all that is happening in Japan, I feel I should do something. Perhaps it's as simple as making a donation to Red Cross. I would love to hear from you as what you have done or are thinking of doing.

Here's a great example. To help with the efforts in Haiti, my aunt joined a volunteer campaign to help gather used crutches and send them to Haiti to those in need. What a fantastic idea!

Hope this inspires you to think of how you can pay it forward.
Thanks for reading.
