With such a big link between giving and happiness, that I truly believe in I was wondering how many people contribute to their local communities? How do you contribute, to helping others?
A few ideas have sprung to mind;
- Helping neighbours with their lawns/ gardens.
- Becoming an active member of local community groups that help others.
- Giving your time to your local school or kinder.
- Giving your clothes and homewares to local charities when they are no longer needed.
- Giving used items to friends and family when you no longer need them.
It's an area that I'd really like to become better at. In a consumer driven world, I think it is more important than ever and want to show my children lessons in giving. It does make for a happy life!
What other idea's do you have for me?
