Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

An Easy Way to Help

     Awhile ago, I wrote about the website, Freerice.com.  This is one of so many websites that make it easier than ever to make a difference - right from your own home and computer.  The founders have two goals:  to educate people and to end hunger.  All you have to do is go on to the site and take part in any number of quizzes on different topics.  They're fun to do.  For every correct answer you get, they'll donate 10 grains of rice.  The money to pay for the rice comes from sponsors who advertise on the site.
     Tonight, I was able to donate 1000 grains of rice to help feed hungry people.  When helping becomes this easy, it's hard to think of an excuse for not doing more.
