Thanks for making the world a better place.

I'm always amazed at people who are financially well-off giving up X-Mas and Thanksgiving with their family to serve hot meals to the homeless. Every one of them says it's the best thing they've ever done on their holidays. And they do it every year.

You didn't wait for the holiday season.

Your story warmed my heart.

Thanks.

PS: Keep it up and you may become one of the happiest people on Earth. With dozens of friends! You've certainly made a bunch here.
