A true story of giving and compassion

I want to share with you how someone I know and barely makes ends meet is helping out a family that has lost everything in the recent hurricane and is living in a makeshift tent in Dominica.
Her kids are still in one of the islands. Their island escaped the natural disaster. This morning she asked me if I had old towels and sheets that I could spare.
Upon inquiring, she told me that she has personally rented two large barrels for $55 each and is filling up with clothes and non-perishable food for that family.
Recently I gave her some used clothes for her daughter.
 This big-hearted lady called up her daughter and told her that she had clothes on her back and this family doesn't and has decided to send those clothes to them!

What a beautiful soul!  God bless her. 
I offered to help out with some clothings, sheets and  non-perishable groceries 
She replied, " I will show you the receipt for the containers and get you more information so that you know that it is truly going to the family in distress. "
What can I say to that? God gives people who do not have much otherwise, a huge heart and lots of compassion.

The family she is trying to support is a young mother, grandmother and a seven-year-old boy and sixteen-year-old girl.

What a blessing to know such humans. God bless her and hope that she can fill both the containers as soon as possible.

An Easiest Way To Stress Reduce Stress from Stanford University

In an evening class at Stanford University the last lecture was on the mind-body connection - the relationship between stress and disease The speaker (head of psychiatry at Stanford) said, among other things, that one of the best things that a man could do for his health is to be married to a woman; whereas for a woman, one of the best things she could do for her health was to nurture her relationships with her girlfriends. At first, everyone laughed, but he was serious. Women connect with each other differently and provide support systems that help each other to deal with stress and difficult life experiences Physically this quality "girlfriend time" helps us to create more serotonin neurotransmitter that helps combat depression and can create a general feeling of well being. Women share feelings whereas men often form relationships around activities We share from our souls with our sisters, friends, and evidently that is VERY GOOD for our health He said that spending time w...
