Today is a May 3 and it is Labor Day in Australia. Since it is a holiday, I got an extra rest day. I had been thinking of asking for a leave this month so I can go to the bank and settle some bills. Good thing I got this extra rest day. Off to the bank I went. The time to get there and the actual bank transaction was a breeze so I had some extra time and i decided to drop by the groceries. I had some extra cash and I decided that I'll be cooking a chicken viand to be distributed to the street sweepers and street vendors near my area. Got a couple kilos of chicken, some potatoes, some bell peppers, and some tomato sauce. Managed to make some chicken afritada. Made a dozen tubs and distributed it in time for lunch. The point is, if you have something extra - food, clothes, time - give it to those that need it the most. Give it to those who can still make use of it.

We celebrated Labor Day the 1st of may in Europe, I thought it was the same in Australia. I am going through what we have at home and do not use anymore. I am going to donate several things, I already did the past months.

I always thought that Labor Day is celebrated May 1 around the world. So I was pleasantly surprised with this.

Bless you for doing what you do. We made charitable donations so we don’t have to be out in the pandemic.

Yes, it is important that we help each other, but I still think that there are few such people.

True, in the end, we can only count on ourselves.
