To Give Is To Love
Of the five love languages, “gifts” is the last way I perceive/receive love. I am a “words of affirmation” type which is essentially why I post blogs and vlogs and frequently add to various social media platforms. What I write is my way of saying, “I love you, fellow citizen, and I desire for the words that follow to benefit and bless you, even if you disagree.”
As for this post, I pray the announcement of the 2023 Vitacca Mitchell Scholar will inspire you to consider a scholarship of your own.
CONGRATULATIONS DAYANA PAMPLONA!
The 2023 Vitacca Mitchell Scholar
You are the fifth Vitacca Mitchell Scholar, joining a group of young leaders who will change the world for the better. Welcome to the “family!”
In 2018, in honor of my 30th high school reunion, I decided to give back to the school in which I found so much joy – Northview High School in Covina, California. The process was as simple as contacting the school to inform them of my desire and dedicating a page on my website for the students to apply. Because this is a private endeavor, there is no “red-tape” or other prohibitive hoops to jump through to give money to a student.
Thus, every year I have had the privilege of reviewing applications from outstanding young men and women, all of whom renew my hope in humanity. The process has been such a joy, ideally, a similar scholarship will be awarded in 2024 to a student within the ISD of my new home – Boerne.
So, while “gifts” are not my love language, I am humbled the Lord allows me to give to others of my time, talents, and treasure.
TO GIVE is how we demonstrate love
Just as each Vitacca Michell Scholar must speak to how they give of themselves for the betterment of others, I pray this post has encouraged you to consider ways for you to demonstrate your love for others. After all, what better way to add to the HAPPY of another than to give of yourself.
