As the bustling holiday season encroaches on our laziness that attempts to settle in as we cover ourselves with more and more covers to hide from teh cold, take a step back and remember what the season is all about -- giving. I hope that whatever your means, whatever your budget, you will take a few moments this year to provide some comfort to someone else in need. That comfort can come in the form of a monetary donation to a national charity, a local church, a toy or food collection organization, time with a shut-in or elderly person in need, or however else you can contribute. Make sure you know who you're donating to in order to make sure that the gift being given is getting to those in need and not those in want.
Another way to assist those in need, while helping yourself is via the Free Rice site. Basically, you work on increasing your vocabulary, while earning grains of rice for someone else. It's a fun little diversion when you need a little brain stimulation, and you get the glow of giving deep down in your heart at the same time!
