| Why would you say that Carnegie yesterday and Richard Branson today have been so very successful? Hard work, a burning ambition and a dedicated commitment to the success of the current project at hand are of course tremendously important factors but I feel there's a lot more to the makeup of these men than their Scottish heritage and spines constructed of steel. They belong to a special club, and the members have one unwritten membership rule, a true compassion for their fellow man. Gurus and teachers from many faiths have taught us that it is better to give than to receive and yet we rarely listen to this valuable advice. We are too busy rushing from pillar to post than to stop and listen and take on board anything which could detract from our own monetary wealth. We are warm and cosy in our own manufactured worlds and prefer not to hear or see anything which could remotely make us uneasy. So we tend to ignore that which could help others and at the same time actually help ourselves. My mother would often say to us when we were children to 'spread your bread upon the waters'. We now say just 'spread your bread'. I am sure that you know that this means to share what you have with others but do you know how that helps you? It helps in many ways. Firstly you do feel better in yourself. It does do you good. Yes you can go out and buy yourself a bottle of wine, the latest Couture jacket or that pair of divine shoes and you will feel good but that warmth cannot be compared to that special feeling which warms your heart when you help someone else. It is true that no man is an island. We are all connected and need each other but so many of us forget that for numerous reasons people need help. Not because they are bad people and not because they are lazy or scroungers or deserve to be in a situation whereby they need help. Bad things really do happen to good people and children do not deserve to go hungry any where at any time in any part of this world and especially not when others can pay millions of dollars on a vehicle. I could go on but I do not want to lose your attention and the important message here is that not only will you feel good when you donate some of your hard earned wages but like Carnegie and Branson you will discover that good luck will rush into that space, that hole in your wallet, and fill it with an IOU that will repay you threefold. So what better investment could there be? An immediate great feeling today with the power of the universe working in your favor tomorrow. Please make a donation to a good cause today, you will enjoy what you buy for yourself so much more and you will be investing in more than just your own future. Thank you. Beau Riche is new but we intend to donate a percentage of our profits to charity. Each and every one of us CAN make a difference! |

| Please take a moment to check out this great website: Any Soldier Inc.: Sergeant Brian Horn from LaPlata, Maryland, an Army Infantry Soldier with the 173rd Airborne Brigade was in the Kirkuk area of Iraq when he started the idea of Any Soldier® to help care for his soldiers. He agreed to distribute packages that came to him with "Attn: Any Soldier" in his address to soldiers who didn't get mail. Brian later completed a tour in Afghanistan and is now home, but AnySoldier.com continues larger than ever. Brian's sister, Svetlana, is with the Army in Iraq. Any Soldier Inc. started in August 2003 as a simple family effort to help the soldiers in one Army unit; thus, our name. Due to overwhelming requests, on 1 January 2004 the Any Soldier® effort was expanded to include any member of the Armed Forces in harms way. Any Soldier Inc. |
| TOMS.... shoes for Tomorrow. Absolutely great concept. Blake Mycoskie came third in The Amazing Race but his company is anything but third rate. They donate one pair of shoes for every pair of shoes purchased. Blake has just returned from Africa where they have 'dropped off' 50,000 pairs of shoes to disadvantaged children. Supremely comfortable these alpargatas are being sported by actresses and designers alike. Walk this way... www.tomsshoes.com |
