As alot of you know I am involved with alot of charity work. I am putting together my christmas charity drive now and have been soliciting the donations pretty heavy.
Tonight I went to pick up a computer that a family was donating to the drive from a nearby town.
As I was talking to the lady her daughter came out of her bedroom carrying two plastic grocery bags full of toys.
She handed them to me and said "I want you to give these to another kid that can use them".."for christmas".
I looked at her mom who gave me a nod and I crouched down to take the bags from her. I asked her "how old are you"?
She said "im 7" and showed me that many on her fingers. then she said "I will be 8 on Dec 15th"
I almost cried.
That episode reminded me of why I do this stuff.
Its a tough year this year for a lot of families, more than normal.
If you have it, give it.
Someone will be glad you did and the feeling is unforgettable.
happy holidays
