help kids
Kids are nice 18 months ago

I don’t know what I was thinking when I made this goal. I’m sure it was made with good intentions. I like kids, of course, but I don’t know how I’d help them. I’d probably give them too much candy and their parents would hate me.

Maybe I’ve lost interest because I’m not around enough kids. I’ve sank into the self-absorbed world of a single woman and whenever I hear people talking about their kids, I pretend to care, but I really can’t relate.

I never wanted to turn into one of these people.

Well, one way

you can help kids and perhaps shift your interest is to be a Big Sister. The Big Brothers / Big Sisters organization has branches all over. You have to apply and be accepted but they often have information nights where you can go to ask questions and learn more about it.
I was in Big Brothers and matched with a kid for 9 years. He left the program when he turned 18. He is 25 now and while I don’t see him very often, I am proud of the changes he has made in his life.
It was one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had.
