helping others: Food shelves are in dire need.
- 12/01/13 08:54 AM
One of the highest needs for the food shelves is right after a major Holiday. And the short time between Thanksgiving and Christmas is even a harder time. It is a short time to re-stock the shelves and between bad weather and the extra expenses for our own Holidays, we sometimes don't give like we usually do. This year my wife and I have pledged to give what we normally do for this time of the year. For us it just seams like the right thing to do. … (8 comments)

Talking with a group of people and the talk turned to helping others. "Why should I help someone that I will never get help back from?" One guy smartly quipped.

Can't do an entire … (13 comments)
