Review for COMMUNITY SEVA INC, San Jose, CA, USA
The air is filled with a quiet hum of fulfillment as I reflect on the day’s (13-Dec-2024) efforts. Preparing and packing lunch for 150 unhoused individuals wasn’t just a task. It was an act of care, a connection to humanity. Each food item, was cooked packed with intention, knowing it would bring sustenance to someone in need.
The process, though tiring at moments, was deeply grounding. Hands working alongside others, the rhythm of chopping and stirring, and the shared smiles as we packed the last bag. It all created a sense of unity and purpose. As the meals came together, so did a realization: this small gesture, though fleeting, could provide comfort, nourishment, and a reminder to someone that they are seen and valued.
Now, with the bags delivered, there’s a quiet joy in knowing that the effort has made a difference, however small. It’s not just satisfaction but also gratitude—for the ability to give, for the resources to prepare, and for the lesson that kindness is a gift that nourishes both giver and receiver.
