Congrats to your husband for his award and to you for getting the closet cleaned out!! Your tenacity is impressive! May you get some good sleep tonight.....
Great give!! Life is way too short to waste what time we have with our loved ones!!
I've stared reading Cami's book & as I'd expected it's been a great inspiration & also answered some of my questions about the philosophy of giving. I thought before that for a gift to be real it needed to be special, not usual everyday thing or o...
My little niece had to do a science project to make something out of used materials found around the home. It's basically teaching the kids to reuse and recycle instead of throwing things away. She decided to take a glass bottle from fancy lemonad...
Welcome to the challenge, Tammy. As soon as I saw 'waller' I knew you must be from the midwest, and sure enough you are from Illinois, as I am also. I don't think I have heard that term anywhere else!! Great gives and will be adding prayers for yo...
Good One! Will have to give this some serious thought - a real challenge.
Welcome and congratulaions on having the wisdom to plan and create a path which allows a joyful transition!!
Those are great gives. Yummy cupcakes will be a hit for sure! And your gift of undivided attention is so thoughtful on a hectic day. Glad you found it just as rewarding for yourself as it was to your team members ;-)
Welcome to the challenge, Katherine. The care package was a great give to your friend.
I love all the wonderful responses you have received to your question. I can't resist adding my two cents.
A couple of simple ideas to try:
1. Find or make 5 to 15 minutes once or twice per day. With "three children and a partner" and all the res...
Wow!! That was so beautifully said. I'd like to reach through the computer and give you a big hug ;-) Hope you will settle for a virtual hug. Your gives were wonderful! Blessings to you, LuckyGirlJulie.
I went to my daughter's work and I gave a book to charity through her bookstore. I did it because I know there are a lot of children who don't own a book. I was a grade school librarian and the kids got such a kick out of owning their own books. I...

Day 18: Got all my extra coupon ready to send out to some friends that I swap with.
Day 19: Helped out a co-worker by taking on extra wor...
You are so right Yogini about putting our thoughts out there. Our thoughts create our reality. Thank you for the story of the lady who had the near death experience. Those stories always fascinate me. Being in the health care field, I have heard s...

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
Mary
