Because this is our class' final blog, we wanted to do something a little bit different. Taking the phrase "public good", write an acrostic poem. List the letters vertically down the screen like this:
P
U
B
L ...
and used each letter to write a word that you feel relates to the "public good". Don't stress, it's easy and even fun! Show us your creativity, you could also have individual phrases coming off of each letter and each phrase could even RHYME!
Don’t hold back,
Travis and Sarah

People together creating
Unity in the community
Based upon common goals that
Link citizens through voluntary organizations
Implemented by
Courageous people and the
Gathering of resources to
Operate and develop an
Original way to help others in a
Definite medium.

don't forget to blog for Project Angel Heart. Thanks.
People pass him daily; he sits there
Under the bridge by the station, waiting,
Begging, for charity, pity,
Love.
I saw him,
Courageous in his humility,
Grasping, reaching, longing, for
One more meal, to him:
One more
Day.
Pursuing the greater good, try to
understand the world. Hope to
benefit the people. Just
lead the way
Into the future.
Conscious mind,
go!
Occasion for change,
open eyes.
Deliverance.
Packaged meals.
Unconditional love.
Bags with with hope.
Laughing whole heartedly.
Instant connections.
Courageous clients.
Gerrie.
One moment to change everything.
Oustanding involvement.
Delivering joy.
Providing a meal or just
Understanding,
Being part of something
Loaded with
Importance,
Caring about the plight of others,
Giving to a good cause, all are
Outlets for the public good.
Our job is to
Do whatever we can.
Providing assistance
Uniting people
Bringing a smile to someone's face
Leaving a feeling of warmth
Inciting change
Calling others to act
Giving hope
Opportunity to serve
Offering time, friendship, & love without asking for
a return
Delving into the unknown
Perhaps we need to enhance our
Understanding of
Bettering our society so that it
Leads to an all-
Inclusive sense of a
Community that works for the
Greater good without
Offending our peers and maintaining an
Optimistic view of American
Democracy (big surprise, I used the "D" for democracy...)
Like Cristina, I've writen about Project Angel Heart since it's closest to home...
Peeling potatoes...
Uniting with other volunteers...
Bags of meals
Lovingly prepared.
Inspiring conversations,
Creating friendships.
Grateful smiles;
Open doors;
Open hearts;
Devoted to the community.
People exist
Under the gaze of everyone
Below the poverty line
Living
In
Constant worry
Generous people
One shift or
One hundred
Doing good for the community
Probably a waste of my time
Unless I look at it as a way to
Brighten up the world, make someone else's day just a
Little bit better. Maybe
If we all
Could just sacrifice an afternoon doing
Good for someone else, maybe then,
Over time, we could
Once again become a
Democracy instead of a self-ocracy.
