While searching google for more Bucket filler ideas, I came across a very interesting article.
Are you a Bucket Filler, or a Bucket Dipper?
Do you go through your day filling people's buckets, paying compliments, giving service? Or are your a dipper? Do you forget to think of others, focus on yourself, or gossip?
Today, be a bucket filler. Do something for someone else, to help fill their bucket.
You'll probably get your own bucket filled in the process.

I like to think that I'm a filler, but I do have my dipping moments.
I so HOPE that I am a filler, I try, but I think like Kristina, I do my fair share of dipping.
Today, I resolve to be a filler!
Thanks for the thought..... I love them!!
Interesting. My #2 daughter embodies this principle to me. I call her a depositor. (As in "in the bank acct of my life.) It's amazing how she adds to whatever situation she is in. Rare withdrawls -and we're all in need of SOME. She is a great example to me of service and work and a great attitude. And no, she did not get all of that from me. In any way!
This reminds me of an analogy I heard John Bytheway share once. He talked about how we come to church. Do we bring a cup to hold all that we can learn? Do we bring a bucket? Do we put our hand over the cup/bucket?
I'll be a filler today.
My brother used this for a talk in Sac. Mtg! We do need to fill others buckets and to do that... well, we have to fill our own too!
I love that! That brings a whole new perspective to things. Thanks for posting that!
I love your blog! I stumbled upon it through Mormon Mommy blogs. I think I'll follow a little more often...
I really try to be a filler. I hate grump people that only think of themselves.
I am a filler I think. but some days I think I am a dumper.. was that a option..
I'm like Kristina, but do my best to be a filler when I can.
I do my best to be a #1, but I think sometimes I may be a #2.
Don't go there. :>
That is Sooooo True. I need to remember that and fill someone's bucket every day --someone other then family even --Like YOU, I am commenting on your Blog and when people comment on My blog --it is a bucket filler of sorts as it makes me feel all gooey inside (well, maybe not gooey, couldn't think of a word) YOU GET TO GO TO THE SUPER BOWL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow
A bucket diaper would be stinky. but better in the bucket than on the floor. eh?
by the way thanks for your comment.
