It doesn't take a lot to spread love and one young South African girl is doing that literally with cakes. All she wants to do is make those who are down and out - the forgotten of our society - feel loved.
Along with the cake goes a blessing bag with a few basic necessities .
In the words of Mother Teresa - if you can't feed one hundred then just feed one. And really if we all took time to follow this example then even the smallest bit of help will go a long way and cumulatively we'll end up helping many.

My 'to be read' list looks something like this picture! I need a couple of lifetimes to probably work through them all. The above link takes you to Elephant Journal - follow it if you don't already - where you will find a list of 20 books to read - some good recommendations there. I should compile my own list one day...
