Today I, along with my dad and son and his friend, went and helped out at a home for kids. We were trying to fix the place up a bit. Painting the walls, installing fans, and moving light fixtures up higher. It felt good to do some service. I know that it would have probably been easier and maybe better to hire local painters and electricians, but in a way this was a chance for us to feel good. And maybe the kids and the people who run the home need to be encouraged that they aren't alone in the work. We are wanting to help and this seems to be the only way we feel we can get involved. Sometimes doing something is more important then just giving money.
