As I sit here watching the Big Give, I had to type my thoughts. Seven people were given 100,000 dollars to make a difference in Miami and I'm thinking how hard can this be. EVERY city has homeless shelters, battered centers and people in need. Every city has a east and west side. When giving is in your heart you KNOW what to do. If I was given 100k I wouldn't have to look far regardless of the city I was in. I would pay 10k toward a food pantry for food. I would pay the rent/mortgage for a single parent or tenants in a low income area. I would go to a bus stop and interview people and buy a car for the person that needed it the most. I would visit the battered womens shelter and spend $500.00 on them. I would have picked up the Miami newspaper and ripped stories straight from the newspaper to help people.
I just don't understand why people are having such a hard time with this challenge. I am amazed Now a lady is giving away flowers, wow. Go to a expensive restaurant and purchase meals for the rich people and challenge them to give back too. Oh my goodness, what an opportunity of a lifetime they received.
I hope they cherished that moment.
