It’s the holiday season, where we’re bombarded with commercials about door-buster sales and new Lexus cars with red bows on them.
But, at the movie theatres, there’s that Mr. Rogers movie, with the one scene that I’ve seen lots of people talking about.
The scene is based on an award acceptance speech, in which Mr. Rogers asks the audience to take ten seconds to think about the people who have helped him become who they are, to think of the people who have cared about them and helped them in their lives. Here’s a full clip, courtesy of Taye Diggs.
It’s an awesome moment. For this holiday season, I’d take it one step further: Who are the people who are thinking about you and the help that you gave to them?
This is a really indirect way by me of asking you to volunteer your legal skills to help others before the year is over.
Here is an incredible opportunity. Next Saturday, on December 14, Judge Rachel Bell is hosting one of an expungement clinic in Nashville.
This is an incredible program, which helps people clear up their record and get better jobs. This can have a life changing impact on the people who need this service, and, the way the day is structured, you don’t need to know criminal law. You show up, and they’ll teach you everything you need to know.
Your time is an incredible gift, and you’ll leave knowing that you’ve done something to help others. You’ll be the person on people’s minds when they think about those who help.
