A good deed always feels good!

Howdy and afternoon William

William my AR friend, it sure was mighty nice of you and your wife to give the lady a helpping hand! You sure are right about that doing a good deed feels good! Plus about that helpping folks right in your onw area, my lady and I do the same thing.

Happiness sure is Homemade 

Have a good one

I think it's great you are helping out in your own little corner of the world? I try to do what I can around here. I've now taken to watching The Broncos games with an elderly person that doesn't get out much and have many visitors. It really makes her Sunday.

I love the picture you used.

Bill, that's what good neighbors and people with a kind heart do!  I feel the same way about helping those in your own back yard.  I remember once when I was a kid about 8 years old (yes I can remember that far back), it was winter in Kansas City, MO.  I used to shovel snow for about 50 cents a drive and walk way.  I went to a lady's house and she said she couldn't pay me, but about 10 or 15 cents.  So, I told her I would do it.  That was the hardest drive I ever did.  There was an inch or two of ice below the snow and I got it all cleared for her...I think I was there all day.  Anyway, when I was finished I knocked on the door to tell her I was finished and that she could pay me later.  I never went back for the 15 cents...it's a good feeling that's stayed with me all these years.

There's a mission in every field and you found yours.

There's a reason for that old saying: "Charity begins at home." And it DOES give as much to the giver as the recipient to know that what you did or gave made  difference to someone. 

I've quit giving to national charities - I'd rather give to those that are run by volunteers or modestly paid employees. Looking at the big salaries of directors in say, the Red Cross, makes me keep my money at home. 

William, you and your wife are good neighbors.  “We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.” ~ Mother Teresa

Well done, William.  Your good deed will be rewarded.

Bill, you and Jdy do a lot for your fellowman.  Even those that you don't know real well.

I wish I had more time to do this kind of thing,  Maybe when I retire.
