A Letter to Big Businesses

A Letter to Big Businesses

Dear Big Businesses,

A lot is said these days about how bad you are, and honestly there have been times I have shared some of those sentiments. But today I take a moment to write to you about another experience.

My wife and I have just loaded our minivan with three large shopping carts filled with food, donated by you. On Sunday, the food you gave will be donated to several families that are in need. For a few days they will have something tasty and nutritious to eat. And has there ever been a better time for us to show love and compassion toward people, (overcoming evil with good) than right now?     

So big businesses while I know you are not perfect, today was a good day. And on behalf of all the people that you have helped, I want to say, "THANK YOU". We are truly grateful for your generosity. Please keep up the good work.
