Variety in Giving

This week I've managed to give away some books and toys, and have begun my journey as a volunteer. At our writers meeting this week we all listened to each other's thoughts, ideas and writing, and took the time to give considered feedback. I hadn't thought of the meetings from the point of view of "giving" because I enjoy them. Newsflash! Giving doesn't have to be about grim faced determination. Okay, so that's an exaggeration, but I'm allowed to enjoy the gift of giving. We all are.
Random acts of kindness, the power of good, paying it forward - anyone can suscribe to these movements. For the next 7 days I will be giving away books - leaving them in public places for anyone to read. I remember an article about this, so I can't claim the idea, but I can put the action in place. Hopefully, someone will enjoy reading these books.
By the way, please go to www.payitforwardmovement.org - there are some heart warming stories there.
