Thinking About Others

The link above is to our high schools principal's blog. It writes about how they have a drive every year to collect things for the needy during Christmas time. The great thing about this was that a family who has had rough times in the past came forth to give back and help another needy family. It makes sense that the family would want to help someone out because they would know what it is like to be in need around the holiday season. Some people really don't know how hard it is for some families around Christmas time. Coming from a family who has had a few of these hard times in the past, I understand that helping others is very important. Some people are probably unaware of drives such as these. I was unware that they have been having drives liek these for several years. I feel it needs to be put out there more and more people should get involved. This would probably result in a few more smiling faces on Christmas morning. Maybe more articles telling about stories such as these would help to incourage others to help out during the holiday season. In doing so, everyone can be happy for the holidays.
