Focus on Friday ~ Give More?
GIVE MORE!!
What?? Yesterday You told us to Spend Less?
EASY! ~ Give what the Lord gave to us, he gave of himself. He gave us his love and hope. Spend Less $$ on physical things and Give More of yourself. Give more of your time, talents and LOVE.
If you have children spend more one on one time with them. Sit and color with them, help them read a book, play a board game whatever it is you both like to do together do it! Turn off the television and play! Who as an adult does not like to sit and play with Lego’s?
We as a family like to get in the car, grab some cheap gas station snacks and drive around Northeastern CT to look at other peoples Christmas lights! It is time spent together - with spending very little.
If you do not have young children try taking in a movie with older children and then sitting down at Friendly's afterward to talk about it. Good bonding time and sweet ice cream too!
Why not visit an older relative or a nursing home, with or without the children in tow. Play a game of cards, read with or to them or just sit and listen to them, many elderly do not get visitors around the holidays and love to share their stories with those who will listen.
Give More of your time!
Give More of your Heart!
...and in the end you will get so much back that you were not even looking for.
Tell us how you plan to give more of yourself this holiday season or even in the New Year!
