Have been coping with a puzzling amount of insomnia lately. This is SO not my usual problem.

What I did today to make the world a better place: Went and clicked the magic button at www.thehungersite.com. Each button click donates 1.1 cup of food to a hungry person. Shop their links to donate more. While I was at it, I clicked their associated links, too: help a woman get a free mammogram. Help a child get healhcare. Help buy books for kids. Clicked to protect 11.4 square feet of rainforest. Help to pay for bowls of food for rescued animals.

It's been awhile since I've visited The Hunger site. It's something to do when I can't think of anything else.

I was paying my parking meter today and dropped a quarter in the next meter when a car pulled up and parked behind me. Just taking my own advice.

You did more than just that, you linked to it in your journal, and the clicks for all of the programs on the hunger site are higher than they've been in the recent history shown at the bottom. You encouraged others to go to the site and click, and we did, and look what happens! I've added it to my "daily" file in my bookmarks. It takes so little time, I might as well do it every day.

This is Maggie from Church--- this is a great way to share ideas and get ideas--- I'm really glad you decided to do this & shared some of your experiences already at forum!

I added the hungersite to my facebook profile and went out there myself--- if I get any comments from others I'll let you know too!

Again, very cool- looking forward to more of the conversation!
