The Gift of You
There are many ways
to be of service to our community. There are the obvious and much needed
volunteer opportunities, such as serving Thanksgiving dinner at a shelter,
mentoring our youth, or cleaning up a beach. Then, there is the kind of service
that we may not even think of as being acts of service. Learning a new language
(perhaps sign language…or English, Chinese, etc.) so that you can talk to more
people is a way to reach out to others. Inviting someone who isn’t motivated
enough to exercise on their own to join you on your daily walk is a way to give
of yourself.
There are many ways that you can serve the world. Imagine the impact we would have on the environment if we picked up one piece of trash off the street everyday. Everyday, you can do something to make this world a better place. Giving of yourself is the best gift that you can give.
