Leaving Some Hand Salve for the Mail Carrier
Last Christmas, I gave my mail carrier some hand-made salve to keep her hands from getting so chapped delivering mail. She recently left me a note in my mailbox saying she "would love to buy some more of that great hand salve you gave me for Christmas".

Pay It Forward Yoga Class

Helping Animals for Christmas
When I can, I volunteer at my animal rescue shelter on holidays, like Christmas.
Usually, the managers work this shift alone so other workers can have the time with family and friends.
I go unannounced with treats for the animals and the staff. I make sure to let everyone working that day know how much I appreciate what they do for the lives of homeless animals. And I clean kennels, feed animals and try to give a loving touch and kind words to each animal before I leave.
I always leave with a heart so full and light; the best present I can give myself.
