Every once in a while, we all have that moment of startling clarity. One in which we can put ourselves into perspective with the world around us, and if we are very lucky, realize just how small we are in the grand scheme of things.
Yet, potentially, so very important.
This week, I had the opportunity to meet with representatives of Marshall County’s Caring Needline, an organization in which volunteers donate their time doing what they can to provide for the children, elderly and general population who may be less fortunate than others of the community.
They do it without selfishness and without artiface.
And they need our help.
We’re all feeling the drain of economic slump in these times, but there are others feeling it much more. If we all rally our efforts, give just a little, children of this community won’t have to go hungry.
What can we do for our brethren?
I urge those who have the means at all in Benton to participate in Saturday’s food drive conducted by the Benton Post Office. Even just a little can go a long, long way.
The smallest drop of water will still make ripples in the pond.
