I support good causes because I like to do good things. It really does make me feel happier to be able to help others when I can. Even when we do work hard we don't always get we want. Nobody totally makes it on their own and we all need help sometimes. I'm not the wealthiest person but I am compassionate and giving by nature. If I can do anything to help my family, friends and even some strangers I'm happy to share what I can. So if my nieces call me for cash to buy concert tickets, or if my son wants more dinosaur toys, or a friend is trying to take his family on vacation, or some dude has a help me sign on the freeway exit ramp, it's all cool to me. For me it's also a matter of paying it forward. There were, and still are, some very kind people in my life who cared enough to help me when I had troubles and even when I was a troublemaker. They didn't condemn, judge, or discard me. They helped, encouraged, and motivated me. I'm a better person in large part because of them. They saw the best in me even when I didn't. If I can chip in a few coins for the greater good, or to give someone else a little more happiness in this world, count me in. I've even got $20 on that Banana Ball you're shooting for.
