Real Love
Posted by Media Outrage on July 7, 2008
People often throw around the word LOVE not realizing that it is an ACTION WORD, and not simply a warm goody goody emotion. This is one of the best articles we have read recently. We know we pump jokes about celebrities all day but sometimes its just good to throw some substance out there that might actually have an effect on readers. To read something of substance and gain a better understanding of a display of real LOVE click here. You might want to ask yourself do you EVER go out of your way for your fellow man? Hold a door, smile and say good morning, observe a need that you are within your means to meet and meet it without expecting it to be ran on the evening news, do good to those that pass you by that you might impact someone’s life in a positive way?

This is some real selfless stuff. I can Digg where they are coming from because I feel the same way. Its hard as hell for me walk past a person in need and not give them a few bucks. Now I cant always tell who the panhandlers from the ones who really need it but that dosnt bother me because thats not what matters to me, what matters to me most is helping when I can. I will always be this way, I have been like this for as long as I can remember. My heart goes out to those less fortunate than me. And I think this is a program worth looking into. The pic at the top of the page did it for me, I cant look at it and not feel pain because that is a person with relatives and possibly kids. I would never want my mother or family members to not have decent food, shelter or clothes. Some people are lazy, but some are just incapable and those are the ones that I feel for.
Thanks M.O. for keeping it somewhat grounded because we need balance in life especialy in this world in the condition that it is in now.

yeah i always try to do something and i really believe what you put out u get back. im scared as hell of karma. (not flav’s son) but i always try to help because my uncle use to be homeless, he was on drugs really bad. it was his choice because we all would have opened our homes to him but he had to get clean. i know its a disease. but instead of giving money i always give a meal. i cant do much cause shit im struggling to raise 5 kids but i know im better off than a lot of people. but when you give its not always for the other person, its for you too. it should make you feel good as well. im the type of person who will drive all the way back if i get too much change. i just have a guilty conscience like that and always want to do the right thing. with the way gas and food prices are these days, hell we may all end up making hard choices. i read this article in people about businesses and churches in cali opening up their parking lot for homeless people to sleep in at night in their cars or whatever. these are the times we are living in.

Funny you mention that because as of lately (Let’s go with the past 5 years) I had caught an interview with the country’s best teacher on Oprah. He had mentioned something about always asking people ‘How are you’ first and I never realized that I didn’t do it until seeing that. You will be amazed how when you ask a customer service rep how they’re doing before they managed to ask you how nice they are or how much they’ll help you. Now I’m addicted to it or telling someone to have a good day or holding the door open for people. You get a lot of reactions (all for the good of course) from the simple gesture.

This is a sweet article, but everyone is not financially capable to give up their house and donate half of the sales amount! Some people barely can afford their mortgage. But this is good to know there are some upper middle class families that are assisting other countries in receiving the basic neccessities that we as Americans take for granted each and everyday!

ms e sometimes its not all about money. just like kristina says asking someone how they are doing is a start. im from the south so we always speaking to someone. and sometimes its just lending an ear, or showing some support. sometimes when you are down, its just nice to know someone gives a damn.
