I’m a teacher. It feels like service to the future every single day.
In my huge city we have a big homeless problem, so I volunteer with the food bank and soup kitchen.
More than that, I ask each homeless person I meet their name and I try to remember it because more than likely I’ll be able to say “Hey, Brett!” tomorrow. I don’t always have a few bills to give but I can give a personal greeting.
You give enough! Money only goes so far, kindness lasts forever.
