I think it would be better if you got out for an entire week and worked at a shelter and a food line and spent time at goodwill and supporting some church charities. Or perhaps one day a month. You would be amazed at the people you pass everyday on the street and have no idea they give on a regular basis. Just because you see a those celebrating at the superbowl overindulging, doesn't mean they never do anything for those less fortunate than themselves.
