"If there’s a world here in a hundred years, it’s going to be saved by tens of millions of little things. The powers-that-be can break up any big thing they want. They can corrupt it or co-opt it from the inside, or they can attack it from the outside. But what are they going to do about 10 million little things? They break up two of them, and three more like them spring up!"

Store Help

The project:
Pick up parking lot trash, help clean freezer, restock shelves, take out trash at family member's store.

Time:
Hmmm...an hour total perhaps

Why bother?
In order:
Trash in the lot never looks good, yet people figure SOMEONE will pick it up. Today, that someone was me.

Freezer cases need maintenance. It's not too tough to lend a hand.

Stocking shelves, alphabetizing anything really, is right up my alley.

Taking trash out has arisen as a major theme of this blog; clearly a great need in our society.

Worth it?
Yes, on all fronts, because any effort is much appreciated by this recipient.
