Small Gifts of Service

From Joyce Wycoff:

We talk a lot about service these days ... mostly horror stories of bad service done to us.  Yet, how often do we think of ourselves as part of the service cycle?  Each of us has "customers" who depend upon us for service in some form; each person we interact with is an opportunity to give the gift of service.

Gandhi advised us to be the change we wished to see in the world.  Perhaps it's the same for service.  We need to BE the service we want to see and experience.

For an inspiring story of how anyone can create a positive impact through service, watch the video at the link below.  It is from Ken Blanchard and Barbara Glanz and tells the story of how a simple effort impacted and inspired the entire system on one organization and one community.  Who knows how far those ripples extend as this story is shared around the world.  Enjoy!
