Money, money, everyone needs it, everyone wants it....

I wish I was rich. You know, born into a fabulously wealthy family with not a worry in my pretty little rich kid head. But I wasn't so, I have to do things like get a job, and fund raise. Oh joy, who doesn't love asking people for money. But I was thinking, and I thought of something that surprised me. As most of y'all should know I'm going to New York in the spring with my choir. I'm not gonna lie, it's pricey, like 1500 or something around there. And yeah, I've been doing all the fundraisers, but to be honest, it's not helping much. But I thought, how many friends do I have on facebook? 612 to be precise. And if everyone gave me a dollar or two that'd help so much! But I doubt everyone will. Or anyone actually. But I think aside from feeling like a beggar and asking for money I learned something pretty amazing. If everyone gets behind something and gives just a tiny bit it adds up a lot!! If you gave up one coffee drink a month and gave the money to say, Heifer International, or another nonprofit like that, and a lot of people did it think of how many people would be reach. So many. So why don't we, not just as the Body of Christ, but we as people in general, just reach out and give a little something to help each other out? The power of giving a little should never be under estimated folks, because pennies add up :) So whether or not anyone helps me get to New York I hope I made you think. A little goes a long way. Like me! I'm short and small but I go a long way. It's hard to ignore me. (probably because I'm loud and obnoxious, at least my brothers and sisters have told me...hah!)  anyway, there was your random comment from your lovable Hannah for the day. Have an awesome day, month, year, and life. I love you!
