Here is something interesting, and which I believe is very true myself, after I read the whole article. There is a book out by an author with the name of Brooks, which in his book called, " Who Really Cares", mentions how every time we give, it helps be less stressed out, feel better, and believes that when you give, it comes back to you.
I have not read this book yet, but I am tempted to go out and pick one up after reading this article that I found, http:/www.cbn.com/CBNnews/282925.aspx. If you would like to learn more about it, there is the link that will take you right to the story. Giving, especially around this time of year, and even everyday is something that I love doing, when I can. It does make me feel better about myself, and just knowing you made someone else happy and gave them something that they were not able to receive is one of the best feelings in the world to me.
I wish you all a Happy Holiday Season, and take a minute to give, if you can. If you cannot give, I wish you be blessed and have good things come your way. I think this book sounds very interesting and I believe what the author is saying, about when you give to others, it helps your mind, stress, and happiness. Just thought I would share some good news with you all today, God Bless and stay Positive- Jess

Wow, I heard of this book before from a friend recently, and she told me that it really made her think and it was inspiring. I believe in giving and wish I could do more in society and with helping others, but I do what I can to help, and it does make me feel better. Giving to those who are not as fortunate as other's like myself, is the best feeling, making them happy, even if it is for a minute, and I do believe what good you do will come back to you. God is watching and that is something he wants us to do, to give to other's and make each other happy. God Bless and Thanks , Lynda

Thanks for the news, I go to the bookstore in my home town and get coffee with friends sometimes so I will have to look for this book while I am there. I use to read a lot when young and also use to write little story-books as a kid, so I am always up for a good book. Giving to others who are in need, really does make you feel better. I actually just donated blood, and that was hard for me, because I scared of needles. Hopefully that wasn't too much information, but I was "Giving" and even though it made me feel sick in the beginning, I felt completely better when I was done. God Bless everyone and those who are not as blessed as some, your time will come. You are all in my prayers as well-
