NEW THOUGHTS FOR THE NEW SEASONS

Hi guys,
Many of us in this season are travelling somewhere or having a good time, cherishing the moments with our families and friends. Within our own happy Kodak moments, we sometimes forget to think about those families who are homeless or underprivalidged during this time of year. The time of Christmas is special for everyone because it creates a harmonious environment. It is important for us to not only help them, but also thank God for our wonderful families and for our wonderful lives. Try to make it a goal to do something nice for others this time of the season. You could help someone, give a gift to a poor family or help in your own special creative way. It's a very nice feeling and a great thing to do, not only this time of the year but all the time.



Write down some of your goals or things you have done to help.

Ok every year around Thanksgiving my parents give me my brother and my sister $100 and let us loose in Target. With this money we buy toys, clothes, hats, gloves, ect. for needy families. Not only does it help others, but it also makes us stop and think about the value of money. We look for sales and discounts to try to buy as many toys as possible, its truely my favorite holiday expierence.
Last year we donated to an after school program in the city that gave away our gifts to parents who in turn used them as Christmas presents. This year we donated all of our gift to the Glenview Youth Services to help with their holiday helper program.

Taylor, you told me before that your family did that. I think that is SO awesome...it must give you that fuzzy feeling inside knowing that you're giving to those who need it.
