World Poverty

To be honest with you, I haven't figured out what I am going to say tonight. I purposely didn't blog about anything else today (so I'll have a lot to say tomorrow!) I had the youth group help put together health kits (which only cost $2.16 ea) and talked to them about who the kits go to and how we have so much that we take for granted, etc. I have no idea if I reached any of them, but I hope I planted some seeds. My son (who was the oldest of the bunch) seemed to be more interested in goofing around.
Am I doing my part to end world poverty? No
Am I mindful of it? Sometimes
Do I take our wealth (in global terms) for granted? You bet I do! Especially when I seem to be so focused on how tight finances are.

I hope something I have said (or linked) today touches someone somehow and gets them to think or act differently.

About Diana

I'm Diana aka FreeStyleMama, self-described creative crafty mama. I've been married to Eric for 22 yrs. I'm a work at home mom to our 3 kiddos: Jake (Tuba toting college kid), Parker (7th grade drummer), and Dori (Kindergarten enthusiast). We've lived in and traveled to a variety of places, but we call Illinois home. I like to play with PhotoShop Elements (designing blogs & digital scrapbooking), walk, watch TV, eat, sleep, hang out & gab/gossip with friends, and the occasional GeoCache. Follow along with my blog and you will get a glimpse into my disorganized, but generally happy life. Hopefully you won't be too bored! LOL!
