After finishing the fabvulous book, "The Go-Giver" I strove today to implement the first "law", The Law of Value. This law says, " Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than what you take in payment." I had to work today...
Great gift! I'm sure your son really appreciates the time you spent with him, even more than the food.
This is an amazing way to start your challenge! I'm sure it made her day. Many hostess' and greeters don't get the credit they deserve. My 9-yr old daughter pointed this out to me just last week. She made a point to approach the greeter at our loc...

Our local food bank provides food to 40 families twice a month. My husband and I bought 6 bags of groceries and 3 christmas gifts for a family. We also attended a fundraising event and bought numerous raffle tickets, etc for this cause. It felt gr...
Thank you so much. It was nice to see the video. I also noticed that the family requested for people to stop sending cards at this point. I can totally understand how they want to spend their last few days with him, not sorting through mail. I'm s...

I love this idea! What a wonderful give. I am going to use this for christmas presents this year. I wanted to be able to give gifts with meaning instead of something that will sit on a shelf or get lost in a drawer. Thank you so much. Bless you, Patt
Today my gift was that I took my son and his girlfriend out for lunch and then took Matt to Costco to load up on food for his apartment. I was going shopping and thought he could use some food too. It was great to spend time with him.

A holiday affirmation:
I embrace the holiday season with joy and an open heart. I look at this time of year through the eyes of a child full of excitement. I gift others with kindness and a sincere smile. I feel at peace and view my life as the miracle that it is.

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!
