I need you all to add ME to the list. I'm in the final few days of rewriting on the 29 Gifts book and am quickly running out of steam. Need to muster strength to make it through to the end. The book will be out in October in hardback. I saw the fi...

Journal entries are a GREAT idea! I'll start adding the 29Gifts prayer requests in a prayer journal, as well as start a prayer journal for my mom to use. Thanks for the suggestion. Mary

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I have so many things that do not fulfill me as a person. I want to return the positive energy back to the universe that has helped me survive. I want to be a good member of the human race and give because I love humanity.
What I'd most like to receive:
A good career to support my family. A home to move my fiance into so we can be together and share the love. To have our baby without worrying about the stress that cost us the last one.

Day Seventeen Free Hugs

I always loved the free hug campaign and I thought about it yesterday when I was reading post secret. A hug had saved some one's life when they where ready to end it all. Free hugs are one of the bestest gifts I can think of. Saturday should be free hug day for me.

Day Sixteen Being a Giving Hero

I woke up this morning after dreaming about being a hero. In this dream I was not a superhero and I did not wear a mask. Who I was is who I am in life, just a slightly older and wiser version of myself. With this being a dream in it a dream had finally realized and I was a parent. It is a parents responsibility to be a hero to their children. Now in the dream I was teaching my children the value of giving. While I was not a super hero, I was a giving hero some one who makes tiny differences in t… Continue

Day 15 Love Letters and Love & Wonder Jars

I followed inspiration from the forum and gave to my fiance a jar candle packed with positive sayings and good luck charms. Also I wrote her a love letter with all of the wonderful things that I love about her. It has been tough for the both of us recently. Even with two jobs she is struggling and I have no employment at the moment. Aside from financial troubles we still live an hour apart from each other and this does put a strain on our relationship. I felt I really needed to be up lifting to… Continue

Day Fourteen Complements

When it seems like I have so little left to give I have given out complements as many kind words to my friends as I can in the hopes that a kind word could change the world around me and make it a better place for all.

Day Twelve and Giving on my Birthday (on September 16)

In just over two weeks I will turn thirty and yesterday I was wondering just how to give back rather than to receive gifts. Last night it was posted on myspace some thing that I had been looking for. The 29 gifts profile on myspace had posted a bulletin about Charity Water an organization whose goal is to make wells in poor areas of Africa to give people clean water. Instead of presents the site founder asked all of his friends and family to donate to the cause. I have set a personal goal of rai… Continue
