Thanks for Giving

Okay, here's my thing...You might be broke this week. But, you have food. You might be lonely right now and dreading your family feast on Thursday, but at least you have family. You might not like where you are living sometimes,but there is a roof over your head. Go out now and take some food to a soup kitchen,volunteer there if you're alone- go to a food pantry with a load of canned food and toiletries. Set aside your pocket change and load it in your pockets for bell ringers when you shop. You're blessed. Act like it. Give back and give thanks! Happy Thanksgiving!
