No teeth

Today I am volunteering at a non-profit
that provides training for young entrepreneurs
and employment opportunites for
folks who are recovering from various addictions
and looking for work

The office space is filthy
the phone covered with dark dirty smudges
the garbage overflowing with styrofoam
cups and trash
and some of the folks that come through the door
look really rough and stink

But what a treat it is to be around this crowd
I am so full of joy!

volunteering is a gift to me
I get to love myself
by helping out

I highly recommend it

Thank you EMBERS for giving and giving.
