This holiday season, for too long, so many people sprint to the retail stores and get the latest mammon they (and others) get their hands on from phones to toys to bath stuff. Enough is enough! For us, we prefer getting food and small gifts for cheap since we were on the tight budget, have so many stuff we didn't need, and the house is just nothing but a big problem. We're in sore need of a rainy day that in this year, it's really dead serious but not fun.

Luckily, to make Christmas cheerful, we have to consider giving up the holidays for free access to clean, living water overseas while saving money from buying whether it's new or better yet 100% secondhanded to save the financial difference big time. $30 saves a life, $60 saves 2 lives, $90 saves 3 lives, etc.

I hope this reasonable pledge will be helpful in freeing up physical space right in the comfort of our home while we care about others generously.
