My younger brother is doing a service mission for our church right now, and part of his daily service is working at a furniture factory where they make cribs, kids beds, dressers, and items like that to either give away to families in need, or sell at a very low cost. He brings home a truck bed full of the scrap just about every day, and distributes it to the elderly in our congregation who still have wood burning stoves and heaters. I took the family up to my parents where my younger brother lives, and noticed the increasingly large pile of scrap wood collecting in the parents garage. The wood just looked like it really wanted someone to attempt to build a bookshelf or something like that with it, so I took it up on its offer. 4 hours later, I had a DVD/Book shelf to go next to the entertainment center in the living room. Its not very fancy, but to me its the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, after my wife and kids of course.
