Today is December 1, 2010. The fact that it is the first day of December is nothing compared to ALL of the other "events" that are celebrated today.
* It's the "Pay It Forward" day
* It's the 55th Anniversary of Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat on the bus
* It's AIDS Awareness Day
* It's the first night of Hannukah
Whew, that's a LOT for one little day! I was thinking about what I could do to at least honor some of the days events. The only thing I could really think of for "pay it forward" was to go through a drive thru or to Starbucks and pay for the person behind me. Then my co-worker Wes came up with a great plan. Donate to AIDS awareness day (amfar.org) as my "pay it forward". He also said I could tell my family that I'd donated in their honor for their Hannukah gift (so, happy Hannukah Mom, Dad & Jer!). I guess I didn't find a way to honor Rosa Parks, but hopefully she'll understand!
I hope you found a way to honor at least one of these events!
