Today I received a box of popcorn I had ordered from my brother, Ransom. Now, I do not really like popcorn all that much. I don’t enjoy eating it at all, but I ordered some anyway. The look on Ransoms face when I ordered from the boy scout fundraiser was worth the thirty-five dollars I paid to get popcorn I don’t like. I wondered while sitting at my table staring at the popcorn I would three large bags of popcorn I would most likely never eat, why in the world did I i order this much popcorn? Then the memory of me filling out my order form, Ransom stood there gleaming with excitement as I wrote down the dollar amount that was due, as well as the kind of popcorn I decided would be the best. Isn’t wonderful to have the support of a family, especially as a young child with a fundraiser. It is so important to show love to children through doing simple things such as ordering popcorn. Not only did my purchase show love to my little brother but my purchase helps the scouting program. A simple
(sometimes seemingly pointless) act can make all the difference to a child, group, or community.
