A man is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has.
My dad always said "The greatest possession you have is the 24 hours directly in front of you and what counts is not the number of hours you put in, but how much you put in the hours. We witnessed just that, how much was put into the short hours from 7-5 on that Thursday. We volunteered not knowing what to expect and wound up forgetting our own problems by helping someone else with theirs. There's a HUGE difference between giving advice and lending a hand. This turned out to be "Soul Food" for us and we are forever grateful to the staff and all the volunteers who brought this together. What is moral is what you feel good after and we are still feeling good weeks after this project.
