Pass it forward not back

[Bobby16]

Hi, I was at a conference today, work related. I deduced from this, I'll just try sum it up. If we create an act of kindness or empathy towards others. There is a chemical reaction in our brain. It can induce anti inflammatory responses. The thought of the day was dont give back, give forward. Empathy towards others is good, regardless of the pain we suffer, individually. .

Very true Bobby16, why I am a volunteer for an amazing charity, local contact the elderly, to see the difference in our guests who are lonely and vulnerable, chatting, making friends, enjoying a high Sunday afternoon tea party, lifts my heart, as much as theirs, 💖

Bobby16 this is amazing! I really love this and I am definitely going to use this moving as I think it is so true! My family ask me why I became an admin on here when I push myself already to work full time and this is the reason that I say. It makes me feel so good, coming onto this forum and being able to have a laugh and chat with people who really understand me!

Hope you have a fab weekend xxx

If you have a few hours (5) hours on a Sunday afternoon, once a month, please contact your local Contact the Elderly. Our guests are over 75 and living alone, as well as Sunday t parties running every Sunday, we raise funds for Christmas Dinner where this year we are taking 70+for Christmas lunch,also took a 56 seater coach to the seaside, with 3 course meal. None of our guests will be on their own on Christmas day, we are just lauching team 7. Contact the Elderly are looking for volunteer drivers and hosts. Such a worth while charity to help. Loneliness is an epidemic amongst our elderly, they are nationwide, please contact them, you can really make a difference to their life's and yours xxx

Yes I'll look at it. I'll look at shelter to for the homeless. I am going to set myself a goal. Stuff the pain and fatigue and the rest of it. I will do something in a charitable way to help improve the being of another.

[Bobby16]

That was the point of the conference. When you help people they feel uplifted and so do you. There's a science behind it. For that mum you would have inpacted positively on the whole day for that family.
