Four more wonderful challenge days (11-14)
These past few days have been about the small gives. Ive begun to realise that i often give without noticing that i do so, so ive been really focusing on the small acts of kindness which make a big difference, even though it might not seem like it at the time.
On day 11 i went to the gym at 6.30, and even though alot of people there were quite sleepy, i made sure i gave them all an encourgaing smile whilst i saw them exercising at the gym. I also helped out a uni friend to deliver post… Continue

days five to ten

I also wrote to one of my friends who's away at university at the moment, stressing about her forthcoming exams.
On my third day i travelled three hours south on the train to visit my friend who has been in ho… Continue

day one of the challenge
Well, i woke up this morning and was really excited at the prospect of starting the challenge.
I had to go to the dentist in the morning, and noted how miserable everyone looked due to the rain, so i started to smile at everyone i saw. When i bought items from shops, i always wished the cashier a lovely day, and the smile that this created on their face made my day even lovelier :)
I have decided that over this 29 day period i am going to write 29 letters. Some will go to close family a… Continue

Great to hear from you too. I'm really enjoying this site. It gives a different perspective on things. I think I want to keep doing it for a long time. I'm really keen to start busking. Not working at the moment so its really good to be able to have time to focus on this. I think your doing really well to do all your kindnesses and study.
Best Sally

We did a "give" in Atlanta a few months ago and gave away 100 roses on a sidewalk, it was 9 members from the metro ATL area, we started a "local" group, and you can start or join one too!
Make friends, read blogs, write blogs and leave other folks comments! Post pics and videos, join inner groups and GIVE! Have fun and watch for miracles to happen in your life when you do 29 in 29! Hope to see you around in the site!
