I was reading my news feed on Facebook yesterday afternoon and saw a video my friend Brett Daminski posted on his wall, and I'm not gonna lie, I got emotional towards the middle and towards the end of the video.
If it's one video you will want to share over and over again, it will be this one. It's true. We take so much for granted in our lives, that we never realize how much it would have meant if we had given that homeless guy just 25 cents or that lawn mower man a bottle of water.
There's a neighbor across mine and Ryan's street named Mary, who comes over from time to time asking if I could help her with her A/C repairs up in the attic, check her car because it won't start, or fix her fence when it's broken. She's in her late 60's, and using her cane she slowly walks over to our house asking for help. And in all the times I've helped her I knew it made a difference in her life as well as mine. Ryan and I came over one weekend and planted a Crape Myrtle in her yard, because she said anything she ever planted always died. So we went and got her something that was tolerant to Texas weather, and now that Myrtle blooms every year. She's not family, and technically she's not a friend, but she's a human being, and we love her regardless.
Feel free to share this video with all your friends, family and anyone you love for that matter, preferably with this blog, because it's important that people read why I posted it.

That was so sweet. I do what I can at times, especially when it comes to my job, to try and help people out as much as possible, even if I get in trouble sometimes for caring too much. It's not enough though, and when we have more money to save and spend, I really want to do more. Donating to the causes we care about and even volunteering once a month somehow would be an excellent thing. We both are truly blessed, and we really should do more to give back since we've been really lucky to have so much.
