After reading your post, I'm reminded of how important the act of giving is. By giving we show that we are not watching from the sidelines, but are concerned and willing to help in any way we can, even if the sidelines are many thousands of miles away.

You left your first comment at my blog - ever - on Mother's Day. Couldn't be more perfect timing. <br/><br/>To all my readers: my mom, Rebecca, is one of the most generous and giving people I have ever met. She taught me and my sisters to always be willing to help anyone. Don't you think she did a great job? :)<br/><br/>Happy Mother's Day, mom! Aw, mom!

I know your heart and how genuine your compassion and concern are. You have the ability and the platform by means of your blog to influence many to reach out to help those less fortunate and in desperate situations. You are a blessing to so many...may you be blessed. Rebecca Lori ~
