Don't sail past your charitable instinct | csmonitor.com

Don't sail past your charitable instinct | csmonitor.com: "My real pleasure came on another night around the dinner table, when the conversation turned to the subject of charitable donations. Speaking to my husband, I mentioned that I'd sent off a check for a community cause we'd spoken of supporting together. Confirming his trust in the decision I had made during a busy time, he said, 'Yeah, you have to just do it when you think of it.'
Our 12-year-old spoke then and made an interesting connection that convinced me he'd understood both lessons: 'It's like reefing. You have to do it when you first think of it.'"
