Countless people long to make a difference this holiday season, yet they don’t realize that opportunities to make a difference are everywhere. Here are some ideas to get you started.
Organize a blank drive
It is cold outside, but imagine how thousands of homeless people may feel without a home of their own, or even a blanket to keep them from the cold. Organize a blank drive for your local homeless, and ask around for donations!
Practice random acts of kindness
I’ll never forget the time when I went to pay for my Dr. Pepper, but the server resisted, saying my bill was paid by an anonymous(匿名的) guest. It’s this random act of kindness that restores my faith in humanity. Bless someone by paying for their drink at Starbucks, or praising them! If you live somewhere where it snows, shovel your neighbor’s snow out of their driveway for them! Whether it is as simple as praise or as complex as paying the bill, you’ll never know how far your impact will reach.
Say thank youust a simple thank-you can make somebody’s day, especially if they feel like their work is never noticed. Cultivate(培養(yǎng))a smile on their face by being sincere and grateful for all that they do.
Use your talents to help the community
The best way to show your appreciation for people is by using the talents and skills you have to bless others. For me, I love to coordinate(協(xié)調(diào))events and write , and so my way of reaching out to the community is through writing articles and creating awareness about problems we face today. If you can bake, make some delicious cookies for people to enjoy! If you can knit, put your talents to use by making clothes for children in foster care. Any talent can be used to help the community in meaningful ways.
Wish you a happy, healthy and helpful holiday season.

Lost in the Mountain
Teenager Jake Deham was skiing (滑雪) with his family in the USA when he fell over and lost one of his skis.His family didn’t know that he had a problem.They kept on skiing.When they got to the foot of the mountain, there was no sign of Jake.
Jake couldn’t find his ski anywhere.In the end, he decided to take off his other ski and walk down the mountain.But he couldn’t work out the right way to go.
It was now getting dark and he was a long way from any place of safety.He knew that he might die that night in the cold temperatures.But Jake kept calm(鎮(zhèn)定).At home, Jake watched a lot of programs about living in difficult situations.He remembered the advice from these programs and knew that he should build a hole in the snow.He made a hole and pointed it up the hill so the wind couldn’t blow into it.Outside his hole, the temperature fell to a dangerous —15℃that night, but inside it Jake was safe from the cold.
But he had to get down the mountain.The TV programs always said,“ If you are lost, you should find someone else’ s tracks (足跡) through the snow and follow them.” “I wanted to live my life.” remembers Jake.“So I got up and I found some ski tracks and I followed those.” He walked and walked and finally he saw lights.Nine hours after he lost his ski, he found a team of worker who came to save him.He was safe!
His mum was very happy when she heard the news.Amazingly, Jake didn’t even have to go to hospital.He got through the terrible experience without any injuries.
So, the next time someone says that watching TV is a waste of time, think of Jake.Sometimes TV can save your life!
