Wrote a thank you note for the teacher’s aide who helped me with the fourth grade engineering project.

I had two separate conversations today with a couple of friends. In different ways, but in both cases, the conversation came around to values, giving and volunteering.

It was a lot of fun to talk about the nuances of volunteering, and it surprises me that we don’t talk about it more. I’m not sure why that is.

Maybe if we talked about and listened to stories of giving our time more, we’d be more inclined to volunteer.
