Do you know that you can change the world? Yes, you and me and anyone else who cares just a little -- just five minutes!
A couple of Saturdays ago (while hubby was on the road) Jacob and I signed up to man our church booth at a local festival. This year instead of promoting our church, we decided to promote Five Minutes of Caring. If everyone invested five minutes of their time every day to help someone, to do something nice or say something nice, imagine what a difference it would make in our world.
You don't have to be affiliated with any religious organization, you don't have to be into the "green", you don't have to have extra money laying around -- you just have to have a willingness to do one nice thing a day. That's it.
Here's one idea (so simple and so easy). Donate your old mismatched socks to an animal shelter, human society, etc. They can use those old socks to make toys for animals in shelters. Wow, how hard is that? Another idea? Compliment someone. If you get great service somewhere tell the manager. It's simple, takes no time at all and doesn't cost you a dime. Want some more ideas? Here's a great place to start -- http://www.coolmomscare.org or http://www.coolpeoplecare.org.
Do something nice today for a perfect stranger.

Hi Kim-
This is such a great idea! Glad we could be a small bit of inspiration for your and your church. I hope your booth went well and you changed the world that day!
