2012 Day 2- Intentional giving continues, unnoticed

[Mythica]

Today I slept. It is one of those things I have come to understand that I need in order to be healthy. I got up and had to walk to the train and straight to storage and then back to the couch I am on. I had very limited interaction with the world today.

 

Again I used “Be on the lookout for some opportunity for giving” as my mantra against my dark thoughts today.

 

When I got to the empty light rail platform there was no one there. I saw how dirty it was. I saw a bag, and cleaned it up as a “gift.” To whom? I  don’t know. But it was all I could do today.

Namaste'

cleaning up a common area like the train station is a wonderful, no cost gift to everyone who uses it. i give a similar gift whenever i go to the beach, always take an extra trash bag and fill it with trash others have left behind. you did good, Mythica. love you! Hugs, Dawn

It is a gift, to the planet and to others who use the station. Sleep is SO important, on so many levels (and it's one of those escapes that has a health benefit). Hang in there - I'm thinking of you (I thought of you a few times today).

thank you guys...

Your kindness to the earth and to the people who used the station is noticed and appreciated.

PS:  This giving is *not* unnoticed.... And may your intentions in doing so come back upon you three times over.

Missed the original post about you getting started here again (because of my own side-swipe of getting let go unexpectedly from my job on Friday)... but I believe as you do that the commitment to Give is a way to bring some presence to each day & some positivity.  Best to you in sorting it all out; I know shock/nerves is a big hit; I've hardly eaten for 3 days (& believe me, that says a lot!)

Because of this site & someone else's idea--I have a pair of tongs I bought at the dollar store that I use on occasion to pick up trash when I walk my dog.  It *definitely* counts... the world is a prettier place because of us.

Best to you--
