Little things filled with Great Love

4/9/2013

When I posted the other the day on "Stupid Dream Day Camp".  I suggested that if anyone had a summer home / time share that maybe they would consider donating it to a family at the Jimmy Fund.
I just put it out there knowing it is something that we  loved,  as we were taken care of this way by loved ones;  My Mom let us use her time share and Terri let us use her vacation home and Nicole's parents always welcomed us to their other home in Maine. We so needed it and so much appreciated it and cherished our time together as a family.
 Almost as soon as I posted it, I was so touched to see that  Nicole forwarded it to her friends and family asking others to consider this and to spread the word.
Then her cousin Cindi and her clients Linda and Frank reached out to possibly offer their vacation homes. 
I was overwhelmed with the love and kindness others feel for families they do not know.  And I realized that others want to help, but don't always know how.
I often beat myself up because I want to help so many people and from experience, I know ways that I can help. But I am not ready to be out in the world fundraising and or putting myself out there.
But this made me realize that everyone wants to do something, every one has something to give and it will be something different for everyone. Some may have a home to share, some may be able to make blankets to donate, some are good at fundraising, etc. etc...

I had the feeling that I don't need to do big things,  Alec was all about the little things, for him it was the little things filled with Great Love that brought him joy and happiness. 
I know for Alec, others want to  share Love and Kindness.

Your right laura, sometimes its the smallest , little things that often mean the most to anyone. For people in need, whatever it may be, a small kind gesture is more than they would expect. It does Remind me of Alec and his love for lifes little and simple things... but the impact for him and everyone made a lasting impression...and something that may brighten a day....And believe me , you are doing so much for so many even with this blog....so it is a great way to share love and kindness every day.

Laura,

I shared, on my facebook page, your "Stupid Dream Day Camp" as soon as I read it. I hope that others may be able to help. Sometimes...what seem like little things to us are monumental to others.

You do so much for others, Laura...you have the biggest heart of anyone I know.

Love,
Holly
xoxo

Hi Laura, I love this post. I always think it's the little things in life that have the greatest impact on people. It is different for everyone and even the smallest donation, thought, or kind word can change someone's life forever. You do amazing thing with the work you do and you are changing lives without knowing it. Thank you for being you and doing the things you do all for the love of Alec!
