29-Day Giving Challenge

So I just realized that I am rounding the bend on my second round of giving! Wow! I feel like this project, this intention has seriously changed me at my core. I think I've become more thoughtful. I have opened myself up to giving. Prior to the past two months I would often recognize an opportunity to give after the opportunity had passed. Currently I find myself looking for opportunities to give and finding multiple opportunities each day. I feel like I am in a much better place emotionally. Even when I am stressed out or heartbroken, I have been able to right myself more easily by focusing on my gifts. So thank you to Cami and Deb and Loos who have motivated me to open up and give and then to keep on giving! Your enthusiasm and encouragement have been a wonderful gift to receive! I am grateful!
Today I dropped off my first bags at a radiation/cancer treatment center. Although I have bought goodies to fill the bags for the past three months, and took part in putting bags together, this is the first time that I have delivered them. One bag was filled with goodies for a man and one for a woman. So today, I dropped them off so someone who needs a lift can be given a bright spot!

You are such a giving, caring, positive person!  I love reading your posts.  The goodie bags will will mean so much to the patients.  It truly will be a bright spot in their very dark world.  Congratulations on almost completing two rounds -- I hope you will continue here.
