#do something good

[sweetonsugden]

"How do you not give in to despair?" "Do something."

I cannot emphasize how important this is.

Seriously, fam. If you ever feel like everything is bad, the answer is always.. do something good.

If you need a list of 100 things you can do at pretty much any time, I will happily provide that list.

You don't need to be rich to do good. You don't need to be famous or have millions of followers or lots of friends. You do not even need to be 'good' to do good. You just have to DO IT.

Here, 10 things, right now: Go for a walk and pick up any garbage you see. Take a picture of something beautiful (or funny or interesting) and share it. Use the Ecosia search engine to plant trees for free. Play FreeRice dot com for a few minutes to donate funds to the World Food Programme for free. Leave a compliment and some encouraging words on the social media account of someone who is doing good things. Reblog a fundraiser. Check online to see if there are any volunteering opportunities in your area. Click on Free Kibble dot com to donate to animal shelters for free. Go to GreaterGood dot com and click all the click-to-give buttons to donate to a variety of good causes for free. Go to Care2 dot com and add your name to an online petition.

Algorithm please, I don't want to know what anti-caitvi, arcane critical and incels are commenting on their shitty posts. I want cute fanarts, I want edits and gifs of caitvi loving each other, I want reviews made by people who at least watched the series. Stop recommending me things I DON'T WANT to see

Start your year doing a little something good.

Our home church suffered a fire when covid hit last March. After nearly a year of rebuilding and fighting with the insurance company this is where we stand.

I don't like to post about things other than writing on this blog. But on this day, I feel compelled just to remind you of an event that took place 105 years ago.

On this night, men who had fought one another for months sat in trenches in the freezing cold, huddled together with small gifts from home. They had a brief respite for a few hours, no shells firing or guns discharging. A tune rose up in the air, a Christmas carol. At first, it was a brief whisper, so fragile than at first nobody could quite believe that it was real. The song was given strength by a hundred than a thousand other voices until it rang over the mud-ridden fields to echo in the night. When it died away, the soldiers left their trenches behind to meet one another in no man's land. They spoke, despite the months of war. They shared what little they had with one another. They played an impromptu game of football and had long moments of peace. Some took the time to bury their dead. That night they parted, laden with exchanged gifts and cheer and climbed back in the trenches to fight the following morning.

Neither side was ordered to lay down their weapons. Neither army was given leave to stray from their posts. No man was told to be kind or loving or caring or brave enough to reach out. In that moment, their choice to stand up and lay down arms brought a war to a halt. They held the power in their hands, despite what commanders and officers did or said. Both sides did what they did because it was right.

So either today, the rest of this year or beyond, stop yourself when you see yourself doing something or living in a situation you cannot or do not agree with. Disobey the wrong and act how you feel you need to. The world has been too long at the mercy of men and women just following orders. Reach out across no man's land despite the prejudices and expectations of those about you, and do and say the right thing.

There's a couple of donation pools I wanna show you

Victoria bushfires: How to donate, support firefighters and wildlife

Tens of thousands of people have fled from the fire-ravaged regions of Victoria and New South Wales as bushfires continue to devastate Austr

It's for the people in Australia

Everyone has seen the pictures, but not many seem to care. Remember the Notre Dame fire? Everyone went nuts over that. A lot of money was donated to help out. When the Amazon was burning, not even 10% of what had been given for that single building was given to help the world's lung.

Now, a WHOLE CONTINENT is burning and nobody seems to care. But there's a way we can help.

The link was given to me by a friend living in the south of Australia. It includes many donation pools where you can donate to help save the people.

Please, share this.

I'm not an Australian, nor am I some big personality, but please, help me spread this link. Doesn't matter where you put it, just put it somewhere.

There's people dying out there.

They're our people.
