We were watching a movie the other night that really struck a chord in me. It is called "Pay it Forward." The message in the movie is that for many people life seems like it can't get any worse, but through finding great needs in those around us we can find even greater satisfaction in helping and serving them. Making our own lives have more meaning as well as the people that we served. I have a new and different challenge that I want to propose. In the movie pay it forward, a young kid about 12 years old tackles an extra credit project in social studies.The assignment was to find a way to change the world. He creates a plan called Pay it Forward, where he chooses 3 people to help and each of those 3 people choose 3 people to help and so forth. The service quickly spread throughout the country.
Here is my challenge to you...Scott and I have decided to start it out and we want to invite all of you to join us. Find 3 people that you can significantly help and afterward ask each of them to pay it forward to 3 people.You can imagine how big this can quickly get, making our world a better place. We would love to hear results and stories reported back to us. So please share. Part of living a healthy lifestyle is feeling satisfied with how we treat those around us. Good Luck!
Chandi, I am going to start the challenge today 11-3-2009 and going to watch this film. Thank you for the challenge. I will keep you updated. J.Scarlett Taylor
