1. Offered to shop for a sick neighbor. She didn’t want shopping, but she did want someone to listen while she talked about how bad she was feeling, so I did that instead.

2. Made donations to my local Food Bank, and to several other organizations that help needy people in my part of the world.

3. Made a point of tipping generously to the people in my life where that is appropriate. The amounts weren’t that large, but they were larger than the bare minimum, or nothing.

None of that stuff is heroic, but I think I made a difference here and there.
