Volunteer Work Helps Widows To Heal
Archive notice: This is a historical post from Mary’s years of blogging. Some older posts may mention products, courses or shop items that are no longer available, as Mary now focuses her time and energy on supporting widows inside her private Facebook community. The guidance and stories remain here as a free resource for widows.
For current ways to connect with Mary’s work, you can:
- Read her book on Amazon .
- Request to join her private Facebook group for widows .
Widows that give of themselves for community or those in heed triple their chances of having a life of joy rather than despair.
What is important is the things you do outside of what you have to do to survive. Confucius “I sought for happiness and happiness eluded me; I turned to service and happiness found me.”
Not all volunteer opportunities are created equal so we should select our volunteer work based on the joy we have doing it. You need to find something you believe in and have a passion for. Doing something that matters can make a difference to your own life.
One widow I know is very creative and she volunteers at a non-profit gift shop. She loves setting up the window displays and creating her own setups. Not only is she getting to do what she is passionate about, she is also getting to socialize and meet new people.
