Thanks for the reminder.

Everyone should think about this next time you consider bitching that your latte doesn't have enough foam.

Man...that made my eyes water.
Everyday I hear people around me bitching about the most minuscule things. I feel like slapping the crap out of them.
Anyone thinking of being "cute" regarding this thread, think twice.

Pictures like that on a Saturday night way back in high school got me to sponsor on a monthly basis. Not much, just a bit more human kindness in teh world.

Want to make a real difference? Got a niece/nephew/younger brother or sister? Start taking them with you to make a donation at the local food bank. You feel good for helping people less fortunate, you feel good for sharing with that little person you took with you, AND you bring another into the sh/caring line.

Best Thanksgiving I ever had I took my neice's son, who isn't all that well off, with me to the store. We bought about $150 worth of turkeys and food since we had way more than plenty, and we shared carrying all that into the food bank. He remembers, he asks me each year when we're going again as Thanksgiving approaches.

Wow, that's just sad. I wish more fortunate countries would get together and put a complete stop to this. Honestly, share the wealth and help those who are not so well off. I will definitely think about this before I complain.

Although the dog one is funny because of his pose.

Just a reminder that we are not alone in this world...For those who feel sad after looking at this post, may I suggest next time your employee host a feed the hungry campaign, or adopt a family, or habitat for humanity, find the time to volunteer, donate can goods or $, and sponsor.

If you think your $1 is not going to make a difference, you are wrong.

Glad to see a few BMW members are involved with charity and sponsoring programs.

Well thats Humans to you, this world is definitely ruined due to Power struggle.

I've personally seen similar things because i've been close there. Thats why everyday i wake up i thank The Lord.

If you are American, dont feel entirely Bad, enjoy the sh!t outta your life, just consider donating and helping others, American consumer behavior is the primary reason why money circulates in the world, the bad thing is the money is going to the wrong hands.
