Hey guys,
It's been awhile. I've got one really good story, and then I'm just gonna write whatever's on my mind. Ok, so not too long ago, this woman called the pharmacy where I work. She started talking to the girl that answered and said that she needed some money because her car wouldn't work and her check hadn't come through yet. She just needed enough to buy her some gas and get some cat food. Well, the girl who ansred didn't really know what to do, so she transferred the call to one of my bosses. She took her name and address, and she wrote a check to her. Not only did she just send the check to her, but she collected some items that we have at the store to send to her for no charge. I was lucky enough to get to participate in the gathering of those items. We got her some bottles of water, Gatorade, a Coke and Diet Coke, and some candy bars. It felt so good picking out items to give to this woman. I just felt like I was really helping someone get through a rough time. It really gave me happiness and a great feeling. I loved it. That got me thinking about the phrase "It's more blessed to give than to receive." I truly understood that phrase at that one moment. It was great. So, from here on out, I'm going to try and give a little more...going to be more servantlike. It's actually easier to do than you might think. Just do it...just give love away. It's worth it...I promise.
