A,B, C's of Giving
well, its getting close to that time of year when we Give to the people in our lives. Lately I have noticed a trend in our thoughts, that life has become too consumeristic, too over the top, too complex. I gave thought to what we would give if we couldnt use money...and wondered if maybe we could do a thread on the ABC's of Giving...I will start with A and whoever wants to follow can go with B and the next person with C....offering ideas of what we could give that wouldnt cost us a dime...
