Decide to be happy today, to live with what is yours – your family, your business, your job, your luck. If you can’t have what you like, maybe you can like what you have.
Just for today, be kind, cheerful, agreeable, responsive, caring, and understanding. Be your best, dress your best, talk softly, and look for the bright side of things. Praise people for what they do and do not criticize them for what they cannot do. If someone does something stupid, forgive and forget. After all, it’s just for one day.
Who knows, it might turn out to be a nice day.

Good post today. I personally know some people helped by the Salvation Army, so I always try to put money in their kettle. Bless your boys for volunteering to ring bells for the Salvation Army. God bless you also.
Pam,
Your posts are always so full of good things to know.
We are so close to Christmas, aren't we? Just amazing.

That was nice for your Sunshine Boys to help like that! I'm like you, Ma, I rarely carry cash on me, but good reminder to carry some this time of year. I always try to give or participate if kids are involved with something to give them the incentive to what to keep volunteering or selling, like Girl Scout cookies or candy bars, whatever.
I remember putting out our stockings when I was growing up the night before December 6; my mom would always fill them with nuts and candy :)
