Blog Action Day – 15th October
Today is Blog Action Day. On The Action Blog there is a list of 88 items which you can pick from to make the world a better place. This year’s theme is on poverty. I feel that the choice of topic is really apt as it relates to the millions on this earth that are facing hunger and poverty and are helpless about their situation.
We should always be grateful for what little we have and be generous with our blessings. I believe in being frugal and to be generous to the less fortunate as the blessings that you will receive from GOD would be hundredfold.
This year I will be getting the boys to step up on saving water and electricity . [ Electricity tariffs have just increased by 21% this month] Our electricity/water bill has shot up from SGD $150-$220/mth. Added steps must be taken to reduce the utilities bills back to a more affordable $100-$150 range.
We will also be packing away and donating all their old toys and clothes which they have outgrown but still in good condition.
What are you doing this Blog Action Day?
