Seussical
In my free time I volunteer for the Red Cross in our area. I do various tasks for them. Amazingly many of the skills to work with our kids help develop the compassion to help those in need.
The other night we had our annual Volunteer appreciation dinner. It was at a lovely place in our town and dinner was amazing. Then they handed out awards. I was so surprised that I recieved one. I enjoy what I do. I get to use skills from all parts of my life that I have previously aquired and feel so useful. To get an award for it was just so thrilling.
I just had to share with everyone. I certainly dont' do it for the recognition but when it happens it feels darn good.
