Committed to Care

They pick up stray branches dropped from trees by gusts of wind. The litter of cans, battles, and paper are also lifed by committed community members and put in trash containers.

It amazes me how much people care about their community.

They want to be proud of where they live while others simply throw litter everywhere.

Generous and caring hearts and hands help to keep this town top notch.

Sunday I was impressed with the young people at Mass in St. Claude's in Clinton Township, MI.

The community blessed them and their teachers, parents and andminitrators as they return to school for the frentic Fall semester. These young people were enthusiastic, engaged with what the pastor preached about studying well, commitment to the classroom, and refraining from bullying classmates, teachers, and others.

Care.

Committment to it. It's awesome to watch people care, commits, and make a difference in this town.

They make life worth the effort to keep things things, pick up after one's self, to leave things as one found them, and to repsect people and property.

People still do this.

I'm grateful, and, even more inspired to keep at it when I witness such commitment to care by
young people.
