Our VFW Post is highly active in the community - but I think my favorite thing we do is Operation Joy: a USO style music and comedy show for assisted living residents. The show changes each month, and we entertain residents with great songs that give them fond memories; and painfully bad jokes. I don't know who loves it more: them or us!

But doing things for people you know can't return the favor unlocks incredible blessings of joy and opportunity. It's a shame that more people don't volunteer in their community.

“There is the true joy of life; to be used by a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; to be thoroughly worn out before being thrown on the scrap heap; to be a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that life will not devote itself to making you happy.”
—George Bernard Shaw

I find it well worth to for the first time through.
