BECOME A VOLUNTEER I find a great deal of wisdom in the ancient Persian proverb "I wept because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet,'' It is so easy to magnify our problems and lose sight of the many blessings we all have to be so very grateful for, Giving the gift of your time by volunteering to serve those who have less than you is an excellent way to remind yourself on a regular basis of the abundance that exists in your life.
