I love that you made the connection between the giving and the receiving. That's one of the benefits of this challenge. Your awareness increases, and you really start to notice what you receive. As you continue on your giving journey I think you'r...

I love your joy at receiving the 5 pennies. Most people wouldn't think of that as something to be excited about, but I am with you. A gift is a gift large or small. I think it makes our lives so much richer when we recognize all the gifts that com...

Well you are off to a great start! That was a very nice give, and especially so because you gave away something that you clearly enjoy yourself! Enjoy the rest of your 29 days. :)

About me:
I was "blessed" with Multiple Sclerosis and have been living with it since the mid '90s. I consider it a blessing because it helped me figure out what was really important in my life. For me that's family, creating and giving. Now I focus my time and energy on those things, and I am the happiest I've ever been even though I live with health challenges.
Update: I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer in August 2009. My intital reaction was shock and fear, but I quickly decided to focus my attention on what makes me happy, and that's giving. I think it has made all the difference in my attitude through this journey.

Yesterday Day 8/Rnd 5 - A Giving Spree

I had a chemo treatment last Monday. The first week after can be rough on the body, and it has been for me. So yesterdy (Sunday) I decided to go on a little gifting spree and see if I could spread some smiles to others. It turned out to be good day of giving for me, and while I am still feeling the effects of the chemo my spirits are high.

Here are some of the gifts I gave:

1. Put money in the tip jar at Starbucks even though I didn't buy a drink.
2. Gave $1 ea to two little boys that were hel… Continue

Day 7 Round 5 - This is CRAZY!

The other day I blogged that I was going to challenge myself to not only give a gift a day but also give away an item that I own. It has been amazing at how many things have been coming to my mind that I had never thought of giving away. There is even stuff that I had forgotten that I had! It is further proof to me that when you make a decision the Universe supports you in getting it done. I am keeping a list of the items that I have given away and will post them all at the end of the rou… Continue

Round 5/Stepping It Up - A Gift PLUS A Give Away

I am committed to daily giftng, but I think I can step it up a little. This month I have decided to add on to the challenge. I will be giving a gift a day + a give away a day. The "give away" will be me releasing one item that I own. To really make it a challenge the same item can only be counted once. So if I give away 20 books that counts as 1 give away. Today is day 3 of my fifth round, and I haven't given away any personal items yet (I tried to yesterday but the person I was giving it to alr… Continue

The End of Round 4 - YES to Receiving

I love giving. I always have. Receiving on the other hand was much harder. I thought I was being "polite" by turning down gifts and kind gestures from people, but now I realize that giving is a two sided coin. When you give you will receive. That's just the way it is. So this round I said yes to receiving and WOW did I receive! As a result I feel so blessed, and that makes me want to give more! It's amazing how that works!

This giving journey has been amazing, and I look forward to the n… Continue

Gifts of Treats in the Mail




I'm giving (still going on):
I live on the main street of my town, and we get THOUSANDS, and I mean thousands of trick-or-treaters down here. But the funny thing is, none of them come up the steps to our apartment! So in order to be a part of things I dress up as S… Continue

Absolutely! Please go to www.madebysurvivors.com and go to the tab for their "store". You can read about their program and order directly there too if you see anything you like :-) I'd be happy to speak with you about this further and answer any questions you have.

Good Morning!! I am a new member( just joined yesterday) and I have a great giving idea for your cause. I am Ambassador for Made by Survivors which is a program that helps women and children who are victims of human slavery and trafficking through education, empowerment and the development of a sustainable income. They make beautifully handcrafted items such as jewelry, wallets, handbags, to name a few, but they also make many children's items..primarily for little girls though.. and they are adorable! They have Christmas products too! My idea was for myself and to encourage other ambassadors to donate some of the products that we sell to the children of your cause which would help both of them at the same time :-) I suggested this to Erin who thought it was a good idea and I wanted to ask you your thoughts as well. It brings me such joy to have the opportunity to support both wonderful causes..nothing feels better than to share love and kindness with others. I look forward to hearing back from you and send healing, positive energy your way ♥ Heather
