This is very wise counsel. When we 'pay it forward' and make something for someone we will probably never know or meet, the rewards and blessings come in other ways. I make charity quilts for Project Linus and I KNOW those sick children have something to hang on to when they go through procedures or just need comfort. That is reward in itself and, through that, I've been blessed with someone occasionally sending me scraps to complete yet another one. When I give back like that, I know someone else will give back to me. It's the way blessings work. :)

Look up a charity for something close to your heart and just see how needed you really are.
