Thinking of and helping others and getting outside of ourselves is one way to make our world a better place while increasing our sense of well being and level of happiness. What better day to start doing this than on Veteran’s Day. Please remember the sacrifices of our current and former members of our Armed Forces.
- Thank a Veteran for his or her service to show your gratitude for their service to our nation.
- Send a letter of thanks and, or, a care package to an Armed Forces member that is currently serving in a war zone in Afghanistan or Iraq.
- Look for the currently deployed Service Member in your own family and community. Offer to help their family at home by any of the following: Call and check in on them to say hello, offer to pick up items for them on your next trip to the grocery store, offer your time to babysit their children so the spouse at home can run errands, treat their kids to an afternoon at the movies, bring the family a casserole dish or home-made cookies next time you bake.
