Tears are a sign of caring Cas. There is nothing wrong with caring. 💝
♥️
I love seeing that someone cares. It gives me hope.
I agree, and in case this makes you feel better, I was crying along with you.
I started crying at baby items lol (and continued pretty much straight through) who knew organizing videos could make you cry?
At the start of my decluttering journey I had given a shirt away to a local charity (that gives back to our community through their thrift shop sales of donated items). I remember the shirt so well because I had added a special button to the top of the shirt so it would lay right. About 3-4 months later, I saw a women at the grocery store wearing the shirt. I complimented her on the shirt (because it looked so much better on her then it ever did on me). She said “Thank you, I love it!” It made my day! Knowing someone got joy out of wearing something that would have otherwise stayed in my closet. Now when I am cleaning, decluttering or trying to decide if I need to keep something, I think of her and that shirt…it makes letting go of stuff so much easier.
That's so beautiful!❤👍
I needed to see your reply today, @Stowie!
Very cool reminder.
Blessings to you ~
That’s an amazing story, thank you for sharing. Such a lovely mindset to have when we Declutter.
❤️
💖💖💖💖💖🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
You have such a precious heart, Cas. "Decluttering is not taking away from you it's imagining the person who is going to get it.." Now that's a mindset we all need. Thank you Cas, I love you!
Thank you so much!
This made me cry. 😭 Such a good way of looking at decluttering. I have been the woman at the Salvation Army who was so thankful for the clothes that I was able to get for my children for so much less than retail. ❤️ I like to think that my donations have blessed someone else as well.
Those tears are from compassion, empathy, passion and caring - nothing wrong with that. Thank you for sharing so openly!
I so needed this, tears and all. Don't be embarrassed about the fact that you have a beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing
My thoughts exactly. I love her more every vid I c.
Completely agree! Makes me love her more for her beautiful heart ❤️
Wow, you found the perfect words for this!
I agree that Cas has a beautiful soul.♥️
You are so loved for the way you are please don’t change!
This video reminds me how we have been told our whole lives " don't cry "don't be a baby" so many times that we feel shame for showing emotions. It's so toxic and we should all help each other break this down 💕
Never put yourself down while you are picking up so many! You are doing a great service by connecting those with more to others who have less. That's moving & and heart felt & the perfect time to cry.
Best decluttering video... EVER! When you look at it that way; why wouldn't I give what we are not using? I cried too. It's ok, it makes us humans that care. 💛
The elderly population NEEDS us. Thank you, thank you for bringing awareness. The little things can mean so much to those who have spent their lives giving to others.
Exactly I wasn't aware of this one the craft supplies
Please never apologize for wearing your heart on your sleeve. I love the idea of donating.
I have worked in a nursing home for over 2 decades and THANK YOU for sharing about this! I wish more people knew the things you are talking about! I could write a book on this issue. Give anything you can to our elderly!!!❤ Thank you for your genuine heart!!
How do you go about doing that? Do you just cold call the nursing facilities in the area? Would whoever answers the phone be able to help answer questions or should you ask for someone in a particular position?
Usually they have someone called an activities director
Crying is not embarrassing, it’s an honest expression of feelings 🤗
I'd like to add that jigsaw puzzles are great to donate to nursing homes/assisted living. Especially smaller ones (200-500 pieces) that aren't super hard. My grandma has been in assisted living 5 months and has already done every puzzle there that fits on her card table multiple times, plus we have bought several to try to give her something new. She doesn't know how to crochet or knit, but she loves puzzles.
This is a great idea!
There is an Australian program where they bring together old people and 4 year olds and one of the old men really loves puzzles and connects with the 4 year olds trough them. Anyway your story reminded me of it ua-cam.com/video/SGoMXs8cEqM/v-deo.html
As a Former Activity Director of an Assisted Living Center for Alzheimer’s I’ll shout out in Agreement here! Most of us work with very little budgets! And better yet, donate some time and stay to work those puzzles! I accepted beauty products, books, games and most needed was what Cas said CRAFT SUPPLIES! I’m tearing up typing this too! Many Residents never had a single visit from family. They were literally dropped off with little to nothing! So check with a local center and see what they could use to bring some love to these people in our society who are so often forgotten!
Word and number puzzle books are also popular.
For me, the struggle with decluttering is that I want the item to go where it can do the most good. I HATE just dropping things off at Goodwill so that company can turn a profit. I love that you mentioned Women's shelters, daycares, homeless shelters, nursing homes, medical charities, and after school programs as options. I'd love to see more great places to send our stuff. That's truly my biggest hangup. Just like the mom with the baby's foot brace, I can easily and quickly part with my junk if I know it is going to the right place. Please give us more ideas!!
emergency rooms often have to cut off clothing and people need something to wear home sometimes.
Yes same! I even have seen thrift shops and shelters throw out perfectly good items (not just due to something like bedbugs) and so when i can hand over an item directly or closer to the new owner, it feels like a safer bet that the item won't be trashed soon...but it also triggers my hoarder mind to hold onto donation items longer.
It has helped that i have been more selective and more aware about what charities/shelters/groups that i send items to.
Don't give up! ❤❤❤
A lot of people who need things go to Goodwill tho & when you find what you need it's like a miracle! :D
I completely agree!! I love being able to 'gift' it, not sell it. ❤️
Remember that Goodwill and other thrift stores are most often set up to use the proceeds for job training programs or other charity programs. 💜
I, too, was crying for the nursing home and medical equipment. Then when you started talking about your work with people who could not afford basic things like clothes and dishes.
I am a crybaby, too.
I think "crybabies" are what the world needs. People who are emotionally motivated to help others. Keep it up, and I will cry with you.
Never apologize for your tears, Cas. When your heart gets full-it comes out your eyes. I cried with you through out your video. It was a great. One of the best you've ever done. And, one I needed to hear regarding donating. I think we all need to hear these type things.Thank you.
The video made me cry. Then I stopped until I read your comment. "
This is exactly how I feel. After my husband died nearly 3 years ago, I went through his stuff (clothes, etc) and donated it all within months of his passing. So many of my friends were astonished, but all I could think of was that someone needs this and that all it was gonna do in my house was collect dust. We have volunteered for years at our local CF Storehouse (they give everything away for free) and I know that he would have wanted this. Granted I kept a few things my boys might want later but overall I emptied his side of the closet. Once you work with the homeless, needy, and the elderly your mind shifts to all the "help" this stuff can be. Don't feel too bad about crying. You made me cry with your story because I have those stories too.
Good for you!
I hope you remembered to check the pockets before donating. My dad is a guru of dumpster diving and came upon some books with total $70.00 in them. Purses with money in them and all kinds of things which are of value that people didn’t think were and tossed them into the garbage.
I too went to put something in a donation pile when I thought to look inside and found a pair of earrings and realized that my aunt had given me the item and the earrings together but I had had the items in a box packed away for 6 yrs marked cleaning that ended up having kitchen items not intended to be donated or given away
I felt the same way when my husband died. Getting rid of his clothes did not diminish my memories of him.
My husband and I would go through our closet once a year and get all the old sweatshirts and jackets and make up bags with personal care products, a warm shirt and power bars. After he died I just new he would want me to continue doing this. So I make up bags that I give to my church. I just tell them to say it's from Stan (my husband) I learned to ignore people's comments about how I disposed of his clothes
Cass, don't EVER feel embarrassed or ashamed of crying on camera. It's a sign of strength, compassion, and vulnerability. You have such a beautiful heart. Don't ever be afraid to show that. I think a lot of us that watch you can say that we love you more for being so real about how you feel. ❤️ Thank you for what you are constantly pouring into us when it comes to organization, encouragement, and even laughter. You're so wonderful to watch. I've always told my husband, if we met in real life, we'd probably be best friends. He agreed.😂
Thank you for this video ! God used you to speak truth in my life. I called our local nursing home and the day I called was the first day they officially had hired an activity director ! I talked with her and we worked up a list. Now there's a tote at my church and although its only been there for a little over a week, one lady shared that she has a lot of crochet items she's bringing to our box :) so excited to partner with our nursing home - maybe every few months to try and keep them stocked ! I also learned that they are happy to have churches sponsor a number of residents and the residents pick out a gift for their exchange friend out of what is there 😍😍😍 excited to get involved more. Thank you. God bless you.
I love it!!!
Ghaa, this episode really got to me. I am in the "shop at goodwill" category, and can say I am so appreciative of all of the things donated to charity shops and to my family directly. There was a Christmas where we got presents through donation, and then I was able to get a dress and shoes for prom through the Cinderella project, I even got a voucher to get my hair done, which made me feel so special. I still have the dress and it remains one of my dressiest pieces of clothing. So thank you Cas and thank you to everyone who donates and helps others. It is truly appreciated
Love that!
City of Angels: Why do people cry? Seth: Maybe, maybe emotion becomes so intense your body just can't contain it. Your mind and your feelings become too powerful, and your soul weeps.

This is what we need more of today in this world - humanity and compassion
Oh man!!! So glad I’m not the only one that feels that ways about the elderly. I’m Navajo and we have a game we play only during the winter. A group of people from our community would get together to play with the elderly. To see their happy faces and sing the songs was the best memories of my life.
This may just be my all-time favorite video of yours, sweet Cas, because THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT!
Changing our mindset from "I paid a lot and feel guilty throwing this away" to "I can bless someone else who NEEDS this right now and can't afford it otherwise" is absolutely a life-changing shift.
As always, I'm so incredibly grateful for your insight, humility and honesty. You're changing so, so many lives, Cas, and we are on your team to help spread your message that better days ARE ahead! 💪
Big love from San Diego.
I had five boxes of household items I was planning to take to goodwill, then I heard a family had lost everything in a fire and they were finally getting settled in an unfurnished mobile home. I took everything to them to go through intending to take what they didn’t want to goodwill. They needed everything from cups, plates, kitchen utensils, picture frames, sheets, curtains, pots and pans and a few Christmas decorations. It felt wonderful watching them unbox and find things they needed and could use 💖💖💖
Do NOT be embarrassed to "cry in front of" us watching your videos. It shows how passionate AND COMPASSIONATE you are! Love you Cass!!
I didn’t cry through this video - I SOBBED! (I’m a crybaby, too.). It started with the poor sweet puppy lying on the cold, hard cage and went right to the last minute of the video. So, thanks, Cas, now my eyes will be swollen at work tomorrow morning! But seriously, thank you. There some things I hadn’t thought of, like balls of yarn to retirement homes. I will look at decluttering and donating in a whole new way now. And you, my friend, are a treasure. ❤️
Thank you!
Yes! I learned that men’s jeans are the thing shelters need the most. Men in shelters need hardwearing pants that can stand up to sitting/sleeping rough and infrequent laundry (but when they do get laundered it’s rough too). When I told my husband he donated some pants he would’ve kept forever otherwise. Our local YWCA women’s shelter also takes empty journals - women and their kids appreciate having a place to process everything they’ve been going through and most of us have tons of notebooks and journals lying around, so that’s another easy one.
I have so many journals and notebooks that I don’t want to just throw away or take to goodwill. Thank you for this idea!!
💗
When my mother-in-law passed suddenly in a crash, we found some unopened balls and baby items in the closet. We were not sure what they were for. We finally learned she liked to donate to a program that gave Christmas gifts to children who's parents are incarcerated (her crash was right before Christmas). So that's an idea that always stuck with me.
M M, I am sorry to hear of the loss of your M.I.L. Obviously, she had a big heart too, for others.💖💝
@@kimberleyfrasquillo3684 She really did! She embraced living with less and giving others more 🙂
So sorry for your loss & the loss of your Mother in law to the community, she sounded like a lovely caring woman💕 Especially helping a cause/people that maybe get overlooked in the community due to the actions of their loved ones/family members. X
Right before Christmas... must have been extra hard on your family. I hope you found comfort in knowing what a generous soul she was.
Wow !!Sorry about your loss !!
Thank you for being "Real!!!" You don't always have to be funny! Sharing what's in your heart is beautiful!
Don't you ever apologize or call yourself a name because you have a compassionate heart!! 🤗🤩😍
When my husband passed away a year ago, I donated 26 suits (a few with tags on) and over 40 ties. For me it was therapeutic to know that people would benefit from those. BTW, I'm a person who cries easily and I've reached the point where I realize there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Some of us are just "wobbly-hearted" by nature. ❤
Sorry for your loss
It took me awhile before I was able to donate my husband’s suits after he died, but I was able to let them go happily when our local high school asked for suits for their career program, Dress for Success. My heart goes out to you in your grief. A big hug.
Im sorry for your loss

Thank you! He had been ill for several years with frontotemporal dementia (horrible disease) and was only 61.
@@kimedo61
Hugs to you, too! That program sounds awesome!
Oh my goodness, Cass, you asked if I'm sitting on old yarn. I'm literally sitting on my bed and my yarn is under my bed. My tears were the opposite of yours. It's hard to let go. Thank you for sharing your emotional plea!
My kids and I always talk about how our stuff is going to other people, other kids. Makes it so much easier to part with it...
We have a new "clothing pantry" in our town for homeless/needy people. I was surprised to find out they need more than just clothing. They take (clean) pillows, bedding, pillow cases (I had SO many extra pillow cases)....even a big beach towel. I was told they'd use it for a towel or even a blanket. I also found that a rolling suitcase is considered a real "score" -- some of the homeless get stopped and have their grocery cart taken away (maybe because it was possibly stolen). Also, they can't take a grocery cart inside with them at, say, a warming or cooling shelter...but they can roll a suitcase in. I was so glad to give up my spare one, and I found out when it was given to a homeless woman she exclaimed, "And it's so pretty!". It really does help to know we can help others and ourselves at the same time.
Thanks will remember that!
Cass, you rock. I cry like....all the time. I now just assume it shows I care. I don't have the energy to not cry when I want/need to. Also, these are some great ideas!!! Facing helping my parents downsize, and I knoooooow there will be craft stuff like yarn and fabric that need new homes. I would never have thought of nursing homes. Thank you.
Don’t ever apologize or being a thoughtful, loving and caring person ❤️
NOTHING is wrong with you, Cass, except that you are a nice person ! Have a blessed day.
Cas that’s why we LOVE you, because you are so real and we all see that❤️ Keep crying we’re crying with you !!!
At a bath and body supply store I used to manage we would take the returns that were still good and save them up and once a month take them to the womens shelter. I will add that it honestly isn’t just women though-there are women who leave with their kids, including sons. The kids can use the donations too.
Also, when we did a large donation to the homeless shelter we got to “tour” it and we met some of the people there. We asked the women what are the things they need most-female supplies and diapers were their top two they listed.
Every charity I have ever volunteered at has stacks of sanitary supplies & diapers because so many women need them. Anyone who has gone through menopause....donate those unused boxes of tampons & pads!
So here I am crying with you thinking of all the things I can share with people. Ready to declutter and hopefully put a smile on someone else’s face. Thanks for the reminder that one mans trash is another mans treasure. Enjoy the day.
Cas, you are an empathetic soul. There's no need to apologize for being a good person. It makes my heart hurt as well. Everyone deserves dignity and even small things really do mean so much to people with nothing and give them their dignity back. You're a good egg. ❤
I haven't heard that saying in a very long time. "Your a good egg." Thank you for making me think of my sweet dad, gone since 2003.
Today I packed up 15 years of my sorrow in the form of tiny hotel shampoos, body lotions & conditioners that I accumulated over the last 15 years of long-distance Eldercare that I did to take care of my dying mother, who lived far away. I bagged them, boxed them, and dropped them off a homeless shelter. I know how grateful someone will be to get these.
"What is wrong with me?!"...you have a beautiful, vulnerable, warm heart, Cass...NEVER CHANGE ❤️🥰🎊
Cas - Because you have a enormous heart with a overabundance.of compassion. No regrets for tears, my friend. Blessings - Judith 🎵🎭
You are not a baby! You are a wonderful example of how powerful life experiences can change us forever and even the memory of it stays with us in our bodies! Thank you for being so authentic and life giving to so many!!
Cry all you want.....shows the human in you.....I love ya for having the feels!
I have to say this is my favourite video of any I have seen
We all need to think of others ♥️
Let the tears flows. I see it as emotional decluttering and frees space within us. And thank you for reminding us of the whole picture of donating by including the people who receive our donations.
Emotional decluttering. I 💖 this!
Cas, I hope someday you can be present with yourself and your tears when you share with us. It is a gift. Thank you! ♥
You have a tender heart, and you care about people. Those are good things. Thanks for the inspiration.
A tender heart is a gift from God and he loves it when we care others the way he cares for us. Don’t change , it’s an awesome strength to care for others.
My church has a ‘prom dress’ give away each spring. It empties out those things from our closets and gives others a free dress- an older lady chose one for a nieces wedding….all free! Thanks for the tears…
that you cried makes you so adorable, it shows that you care, because you have a big heart 💟
It's called compassion. Don't EVER apologize for being real. Sometimes we get so comfortable in our own little world, we forget others that need us. Thank you for reminding us.
You're welcome!
I love your heart. This should be a series DECLUTTERING WITH PURPOSE
Sounds great! Decluttering to help others and recycling to save the planet.
I cried too!! I've given sooo much stuff to my local charity stores and the gift of giving to those who truly need essential things is worth so much than buying yet another unnecessary thing for myself. My parents brought us up with the same values and I'm grateful every day for everything that I have and will help others wherever I can. Great tips from your video today and you keep being yourself - we love you! 🥰
Never EVER EVER apologize for your heart and your compassion. If it makes you feel better just know that I had tears flowing at your description of what you had witnessed. I think sometimes when we are SO BLESSED, we just can't imagine people such as what you described. Thanks to you, I'm going to be able to look at .y decluttering in an ENTIRELY new light! Thank you, Cass.
You're so welcome!
I cried with you.. its wonderful to see someone who has a loving heart. So you should be proud of your heart for people
I LOVE this video!!! Of all the ways you and Dawn and Dana have presented things over the years/videos this one is THE ONE that made the most sense and made me want to get rid of it all! Thanks SO much Cas!!!
Wow, thank you!
@@Clutterbug I wish I could convince my dad who is a collector of dumpster finds about donating. His and my mum’s house is so full of stuff he has found in garbage (I am so embarrassed telling ppl this) but he won’t donate or give it away because he expects to get money for it except covid put a stop to donating and yard sales so he couldn’t even have a yard or garage sale so again he waited yet stuff kept coming in
He has found cutlery in its cutlery container, classes, mugs, storage containers, (he has about 15 to 20 storage rubber maid containers ppl have thrown out, he has found curling irons, brand new stuff not even out of the package, also cleaning supplies, cds, jewelry, eye glasses, chairs, lamps, blankets, clothing, DVD players, you name it he has it in his place. It has filled up my parents home so badly they can’t use or access their living room or dining room, stuff lines the stairwell and the hallways. He has found shelving units, medicine cabinets, shower items, shampoos, etc. It takes me 15 mins to step over things to get upstairs to the bathroom.
But he doesn’t pack it up
What he should have done this summer since we had such a Marvelous summer and had me come and help sort like items together then I could have taken a van or car and taken it away and helped the declutter but my parents unfortunately only seem to want to do it at a slow pace and their own and not get help to move things.
@@sweetlady6059 I'll pray for them & you. That would be a tough problem to solve. Maybe they are embarrassed to have someone see it. If they are older sometimes people are afraid of losing their indepentence. I'm just guessing, That would be very hard for you. 🙏🙏💖🙏🙏
Someone close to me had to leave a horrible relationship, with one bag and kids. And the generosity that so many people showed, including many complete strangers was so unexpected and heart warming. It allowed that mama to rebuild her life with her kids. In this crazy harsh world there is so much good, sometimes we need to be reminded of it. Thanks for a great video and inspiration.
You are awesome. You can feel your heart for people. Thank you for caring. It all starts with one little thing
I live in a large apartment building with many low-income hoyseholds. With permission from the housing cooperation, we've set up a set of shelves in one of the elevator lobbies where people can leave unused items for others to pick up. A lot of my de-cluttering ends up there.
The things that aren't taken by fellow residents within a couple of weeks, are brought to local thrift stores.
Love it!
Tears show what a caring person you are. I was crying as you told the story of the club feet braces. I too am so emotional. My husband and son think I am crazy, I cry watching commercials and tv shows all the time. Sometimes even reading a book. A big ole softy I am.
I’m the same... I call myself a real marshmallow! Crying reading the news, especially when too good and moving, watching tv add, etc.
Love it!! This is so true! I try to target my donations in this manner. I just moved from Alaska to Washington last year (3200 so house, 2 large storage unit and a double car garage full) and purged about half of my crafts, and have since purged another 1/3 of my yarn and fabric... I knit, crochet, sew, bead, you name it... I gave my yarn and fantasy-self scrapbooking materials to a community center that has a special needs adult outreach. They were just beside themselves. The guilt i had for not creating baby books for my now 4 daughters... turned into such a blessing for all of them. I donate all the mini shampoos and such to women's shelters, baby items to pregnancy outreach locations, old towels and unfit bedding to an animal shelter and a highlander full to the brim of general items to a family that was fundraising for adoption. It does in deed feel good to get the stuff out of the house knowing it will be used, loved and appreciated. Granted there have been times i have drug my feet trying to find the right type of place to donate to... now im able to just get it moved instead of hold onto it until.... And yes, it is worthy of emotions! Awesome video!
"Achh - cry - punch - kick - cry" "What is Wrong with me?!" "I wasn't gonna cry!!"
There's absolutely *nothing wrong with you* Cas, except you've run afoul of one of your internalized 'cultural norms': 'Thou shalt not cry in front of strangers'. It's really a bunch of hooey, and the world would be So Much Healthier if we could let go of that.
Love you!💟💟💟
A sparkling and brilliant post! Needed to be said , thank you
Thank you for caring, and helping us see where we can care, too. ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
Cas, your not a baby, your a person with a big HEART! Your encouraging others to follow you lead to help others! ❤️
Loved this reminder…and your authentic self. That’s what speaks to people…getting our attention when we are too busy being too busy! With the holiday season approaching, it’s even more important.
You have a Wonderful spirit!! The tears just show that you care!! 💕
You are not a baby -- you are kind and thoughtful! Once you understand the needs that exist in the world, you want to make them better. I appreciate your honest emotions.
Thanks for always being so real, not editing out the cry fest was the right choice. Shows us all emotion is part of the process at every stage. I’m always thankful for your advice and videos but just want to also say Thanks for your years helping entertain those stuck “waiting”. The world needs more people like you.
Yeah, her comment on the elderly waiting hit me hard! 😭
Your authenticity, vulnerability and great sense of humor is a beautiful picture of your soul and is your superpower! So blessed to have found you!
Not awkward at all. You are empathetic and we need more of this in our world. Keep being you!
You're welcome!
this is my favorite video you have shared. Thank you for caring and for the tears shared. I have also worked at our Woman's Shelter in Ontario Canada and other non-profit organizations and see so much need. Great ideas for giving.
Cass don’t be ashamed of your emotions. It makes you special and shows how much you care for people. Most of us are crying right along with you. We have caring hearts and souls. I love you for being so open! Hugs!!
You are passionate and compassionate. You are show us you care. Thank you
You're welcome!
Don't apologize, Cas. Your tears inspire us all. Now I know what to do with an old back brace I've had for years!
The more we normalise talking about older people, let alone caring about older people, the better 👍💞
Here in the US, we have a charity called “Dress for Success” that you can donate “career wear”. They help women with finding jobs, writing a resume, handling an interview, and outfitting them for it. It’s a wonderful organization, and I encourage anyone that’s retired, or just letting go of old work clothing to donate them, and help someone else.
I’m so glad that you mentioned battered women’s shelters. There are so many women in terrible relationships with no hope, until they take this step.
Thank you for that push Cas!!! You are amazing! & Emotion is a sign of CARING!! Bless your heart!
Hi Cassandra, thank you for sharing all of your videos to help us be better organizers. It's ok to cry, because it shows how much you care and the authenticity of your heart. You made me cry. Thank you!❤
You are so welcome!
This video gave me more of a perspective of how things I am not using will help others. It encouraged me to give more than I thought possible because of where and to who it was being donated to. Thank you for more than the "usual" donations guide. I know of many charities who just sell or dispose of some items they cant make money on. I also was in tears knowing that everything I am "decluttering" will go to someone in true need. Thank you for the inspiration and continued motivation.
You’re not a baby. You’re amazing for how much you care! I was homeless for 3 months in the middle of Boston winter. It was hell, I snuck into abandoned vehicles…and Harvard university but that’s another story lol. An 18 year old kid…I was so scared. I think back in those times now and always donate items to the homeless. But sheets, towels….the animal shelters. I’m such an animal lover and I didn’t even think of it! Thank you for making this video. I hope for all those people it’s just a small portion of their lives before they can find a house of their own and make it a home like I did. ❤️ ty Cassie
🤗🤩🥰, Lindsay Brooke, I hope things have gotten better in your life!🙏
I was crying with you Cas 😭. It’s ok to be passionate about helping others.
😤You are NOT a baby! Having the ability to set outside of yourself and experience what someone in feeling is a gift that more people should share and not feel embarrassed about. Thank you for not acting like it dose not matter.
I have been truly blessed by the gifts of others passing along their things. Never underestimate how something small can make a huge impact on someone else.
Cass,
Tears are the heart shining on the outside. Embrace your heart. It is beautiful!
I’m in tears, I feel the same way, while I have been blessed, there is people and families struggling every day to survive.
You’re not a baby..you’re filled with compassion… ❤️
I recently found that a nearby church is collecting things to take to coal mining communities. All you have to do is drop it off. The rest of the year they help their local community with these donations. I prefer to not give to Goodwill and other places because the people who wish to buy these items have to have money. Most don’t have any money to spare. Thank you Cas for all you do!!
Decluttering in the barn we found a hard plastic leg brace and 2 back braces from my husband and father in law. Found a place that accepts these as donations and I was so excited to give them over! It always feels so much better to give to someone who will be able to use it!
YOU ARE AN ANGEL!!!!! Don't EVER be down on yourself for your compassionate, loving, caring heart! YOU are a GIFT to us all! You are blessing us, and we in turn can bless others with this great work you're doing and by following these wonderful tips with us all! Bless you sweetest girl!
Your emotions and caring are your super powers!
Thank you for this! I wept too. Love you Cas ♥️
I love your tender heart! We are blessed and it is wonderful to share and change other's lives by being generous. Love you and your channel!
I helped a special person pass along a lot of her hoarded items. Once I could tell her about a need she was so willing to allow me to remove volumes of clutter that could benefit someone else. I believe my more gentle approach to her 'hoarding' collection was what helped her regain some as semblance of order in her life. We sometimes need to 'look for that person with a need' to be willing to let go This is the best encouragement video I have watched. You’re doing a great job.
Those tears are why people watch and follow you and you inspire God Bless You
Love you, Cas. This video was perfect.
Such wonderful advice Cas. Our beloved cat passed away this weekend and we boxed up all his things and brought them to our local animal shelter. They were so grateful and appreciative to receive it all, and it helped us find some good in what we were going through. Knowing that the items will be making other kitties happy has brought us some comfort. Thanks for your wonderful videos!
