Won’t You Help Wednesdays Paying it forward, random acts of kindness, do unto others, fellowship, community, all words that speak to human ability to make life better for others and, in turn, make their lives better. There is no better way to help yourself than to help someone else. If you feel that your life is less than you’d hoped, more than you can handle or somewhere in between, you can make your world better by helping someone else. If you study successful people you will find that they are givers. They tithe, they donate their time and abilities to pay forward and to receive. There is an old adage, you have to give to receive. It is true. You must give of yourself, your finances, your stuff, your heart, your time and your other resources. They are investments in your future and the future of humankind. Giving opportunities are limitless and do not have to be relegated to money. Give up your space in line to someone with fewer items or a har- ried look on their face. Make dinner for someone whose child is sick or maybe is single and hasn’t had a home-cooked meal in a while. What does it take to double a recipe? Bake cookies and drop them off to a ran- dom business where the employees stand in the cold or heat. Ever think it was fun to rock a sign back and forth in the weather like people are doing nowa- days? Buy someone’s coffee, newspaper or pay their toll. Take flowers to someone in a nursing home to brighten their day. Make signs for the Special Olympians and cheer them on at their spe- cial games. Walk the neigh- bor’s dog, mow their lawn. Get into your closet and donate items to others who have little or nothing. Use buy-one-get-one-free coupons to get and donate items to a food cupboard. Fill up a starving college stu- you can make a gesture towards someone else, then you know it can hap- pen to you too. Make a contribution to God’s sav- ings account and you can be sure He will give you great interest for your investment. What you put out will come back to you in droves. Today is Wednesday; Faydra Rector Life Coach dent’s gas tank. Fill a single mom’s car with groceries. Take a life-long friend to the spa for the works. Put flowers on an old unmarked grave to commemorate that person’s contri- bution to this world. Write a thank you note to a teacher who mentored you. Compliment someone. When you help others, it makes you realize that your situation is a moment in time. Acting in kindness proves that kindness exists and if wouldn’t it be great if everyone who reads this column intentionally helped someone, some- how in some way today? You could be anonymous or you could tell them you are part of a new Red Bluff trend: ‘Won’t You Help Wednes- day’s’ and ask them to be kind to someone too.

The Democrats had their picnic On May 1, the Democrats of Tehama County held a Potluck Picnic in Red Bluff’s River Park.

Soon after Reed continued on the campaign trail, State Senatorial candidate Lathe Gill, pictured here, stopped by to visit with the crowd and answer questions. Everyone enjoyed getting to know both Democratic candidates.
