What Are Your Favorites?
Thursday, January 24th, 2008I have favorite things like cheesecake, family, books to name a few. Everyone has favorites. I like to watch programs on TV where people are helped. Make overs are cool because they give people second or third chances. Judge Hatcher helps families in need, sometimes when you’d think that things were hopeless. Extreme Makeover, Home Edition helps to restore families and give them security, a place to live when their situation usually was at rock bottom. Dr. Phil talks to some who might have closed minds or a weird way of looking at situations. I could go on and on and continue to list things I’ve seen.
Habitat for Humanity, Salvation Army, Goodwill Industries, local food pantries, organizations that I don’t know to list are here–they all help.
Our country was built on the idea of chances, opportunity, people helping people. We see this happening still. Telethons and other organized events, raffles and fund raisers–there are many ways to reach out. The U.S.A. is my favorite country, of course. I’m biased in its favor. I was born and raised here. It’s not perfect, of course, because it’s full of human beings. we make mistakes; but we also have chances to correct them. That’s my most favorite thing of all: A chance to live, chances to correct my own mistakes and the freedom to try.
