29-Day Giving Challenge

TrayCee68's Blog (8)

Starting over

Yesterday at work I learned it was a co-workers birthday and decided to run to the store and pick up a birthday card and a package of his favorite candies. I had everyone that was working sign a card and he seemed surprised and happy to be thought of.



My husband's boss offered us a case of water for our fourth of July picnic which was nice since I was already on my way to the store, I thought it was nice of him to offer.



Sometimes it's the little things in… Continue

Different perspective

 

Normally I would look at have a day break of giving as a failure. Like a diet, once you fall off the wagon, there's really no getting back on. In this case, I have changed my viewpoint.…

Day 8

The last few days I've tried to take advantage of opportunities to give and without expectation, I've been blessed with several surprises. Having intention really does make a difference in what you give and how you give, and it seems like it makes a difference to those receiving.



Today the gift I gave was making coffee for the staff I work with. They really LOVE coffee…

Day 4-7

I have been gone for the last couple of days camping with some friends. At first, I starting getting anxious about what my gift would be for the day... then I told myself, getting all crazy about it kinda seems like reaching to me. So since the day was pretty light in terms of…

Day 3

 

 

Today has been a good day although after two days I seem to be thinking to myself~ is that a good enough gift? Especially when it comes to intangible items such as time.

Day 2

 

I'm pretty new to the "blogging" world and probably need to come up with a better title...lol.

This morning, an email from my manager offering me her CSA basket for the week as she is out of the office until next week. A week's worth of organic veggies ~ very thankful.

Been thinking…

Day 1

I have been giving some thought about this challenge and wondering about all the times that I have been blessed by others and how many opportunities I have blessed those around me. To me, it can be a good thing to give without thought because it displays a rooted sincerity without expectation. So then for me the question that comes to mind, is do I miss opportunities because I sometimes lack intention and to that I would say yes. This is…
