What is the Little Give?

It is Sunday night and I just got done watching The Big Give Finale.  I didn't watch this whole series, but it looked like it would have been a really fun show to watch.  I guess that the show was about people giving, it looked like it would have been inspiring.  I think that sometimes when people watch shows like this, they have big ideas but maybe not the resources to pull it off.  This is exactly how I feel. 

The interesting thing is I have been feeling a little blue lately.  My husband and I were talking and he asked me if I knew what was wrong.  The truth is I don't really have a reason for feeling sad.  Yet, sometimes I find myself feeling very unfulfilled.  I love being a mother and a wife, but sometimes I just want to have the satisfaction of accomplishing something big.  My husband gave me some really good advice.   He said, "Jenny find something to do that will make you happy."  I told him that I just don't know what that is, and he said,  "You are always happy when you are serving".   He told me to lose myself in Service.  He is so right.  This kind of thing always makes me happy.

That is when I got the idea for the Little Give, I might not be able to give big but I can give a little.  It is getting late, so I am going to sleep on this whole idea.  Hopefully I will have a good idea and I will post it tomorrow.
