Sunday Inspiration: Giving Is the Best Communication

I can’t stand watching most commercials.  They seem to always be trying to sell me something I don’t need and don’t want.  So I use my DVR to skip right over them.

But every once in a while, there is a commercial that goes right for the heart and that promotes what’s best in us instead of what’s worst.  And sometimes they come from other countries.

Try to watch this one without shedding a tear or wanting to do something for somebody else.  I dare you.

Do you have a favorite commercial that has motivated you to be more generous?

    Emilie,

    Oh my; what an inspiration…I still feel a tear on the side of my face.

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

    This will help me to be a better person.

    I’ve seen this one before…it’s one of my favorite ones. My only comment about this is I’ll bet the family didn’t even remember that particular act of kindness because that’s what they always did. It is a perfect illustration of how we should help where we can, whenever we can.
    Thanks for sharing this…have a wonderful Sunday.

      I believe this is true. I know there are so many people who changed my own life and never knew it. I didn’t even know it until much later.

    I am a Student Council sponsor. I saw this the day after our summer leadership camp. I shared it and commented, “This video sums up why I give my time (that I don’t always have) for my SC kids.”
