Find The Spark and Attract Others

"Those who serve others will be served."

Lailah Gifty Akita

A few months back, I came across a new term Shadow Philanthropist.  My heart was uplifted when I discovered numerous people from around the world are silently giving large amounts of money for specific projects to help the needy ... who are everywhere.  The financial amount is not the highlight. The gesture of human kindness serving others in every imaginable capacity by anonymous people is catching on across the world.

I had been so discouraged by the overwhelming need of others, I was captivated by the shared stories relating to "Do unto others ...".  Painters, musicians, private corporations were discovering unique ways they could give to others from the base of their own comfort zone.  Bon Jovi discovered his capability in opening a restaurant to serve those without food.

There was a small family owned business wanting to serve, but felt they did not have the overhead to take enormous strides.  So one of the factory workers asked, "We know what we cannot do, but what can we do?"  Everyone submitted ideas and by afternoon the business as a whole, not just the owner, had established a part time nurse office, after school building project  to benefit the homeless, and  a bottled water center to be available 24/7.  It is a start, a beginning and a mighty fine example.  1.  What do I have   2.  How can I serve   3.  Just do it!
