That's What Fun Runs For Friends Are For

When someone needs our help, what better thing to do than to hold a fund-raiser.  Here is a 'Fun run' for a cancer survivor.  No greater love can be shown than to support and help your friends.

What makes them even more fun is to dress up.  Gotta love these grown men in pink tutu's. 

Whenever possible, take the opportunity to give generously of your time, talents and support to these worthy causes.  From the sponsors planning the event down to the last cookie sold, all benefit and make the world a better place for having participated. 

Make a Difference Day

Today is Make A Difference Day, the largest national day of helping others, is sponsored annually by USA WEEKEND Magazine, Gannett News their parent company and its 800 carrier newspapers.  As many as three million people will be out doing good in communities across the company. 

In it's 23rd year of serving the greater good, the foundation can be located at makeadifferenceday.com


 

What a great feeling to be a part of the greater good in serving others.  Utah Valley University has a You Tube video when they made a difference.  Ogden City has done the same.  It doesn't have to be a big thing, just a lot of little service projects of visiting the elderly, cleaning away weeds, painting and such that will  make a difference to the lives of many.

 

Just get out and 'Do It'!  You'll be glad you did, and so will they.

International Day of the Girl

Today is the International Day of the Girl.  Young girls and women all over the world for years have been treated as an underclass.  Occassionally, one will stand up for her beliefs and rise above the challenges she faces. 

Malala Yousafzai, is one of those outstanding women.  Nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize, she will continue to set an example of faith in herself and gender. 

May all women no matter the age, listen to that divine spirit within them and stand up for truth and equality.  This is the day to prepare to value ourselves, have an opportunity to be educated or just do it.

Officially Fall

The mountains don't lie.  It is officially fall as the red, yellow and golds have filled in where green once was, like an overnight chalk festival taking place without us.  It is tempting to jump in the car and go riding until we're stuffed to the brim with beholding the beautiful foliage.

Thank you Heavenly Father for the 3D photo.
