The dollar store is a haven for good deals. Notecards and holders drinks candies that i snacked on. So there was a woman in front of me who had two small children. One holding a princess crown. My heart went out to that mom. And i ever so quietly asked her if i could pick of her bill. She looked at me in disbelief and she didnt have enough to cover the bill. I smiled and paid for it. There are times that i remember not having much. There were times that i overdrew my accounts by a handful…See More

To give back. There are those moments that my body happily states it may be freezing outside but I'm not. As I turned the corner to get myself to the garage there was a Young woman in a thin tee shirt shivering while waiting for a bus. I thought about my car and its heater. I smiled at this gracious moment. I'm hot shes cold. I pulled off my hoodie and handed it to the woman and found my way to the car. She said are you for real? I wasn't sure what to.say.See More

Trying again

Today's gift.Consolidating time: I am dropping off time sheets for a coworker. It's not giving, because I give regularly. I think it's my own story telling that brings me back to drama. I'm not enough; such as smart, pretty, confident, part of a community. I want to be angry. I want to believe the world doesn't have easy answers. I have a small chip on my shoulder. And yet I know there is more to this world then anger. I love, I try to remember that by giving my focus to giving I can comfort…See More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:

What I'd most like to receive:
what my wishes include being able to embody the freedom and abilty to pursue dreams like a herd of mustangs in an open field. I'd like to write. I'd also want a community of dreamers. I'd love to have a child under the right circumstances. And love myself in a way that celebrates who I am.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?

I woke up to a burning need tonight. And a gift that was given that I hope to give back. I love photography, poetry, and art. When I asked a friend.for inspiration. He gave me a set of photographs that he took. And then I took my own set of pictures documenting where and who I was. And I could let go of a small bit of the depression, and the loss. I read and rewrote a translation of rumi. The gift I hope to support is that the calm and love of a community and that same calm can be found in a… Continue

My birthday was a challenging day. I recieved divorce paperwork, and found out a relative had died. I recieved a beautiful journal. I tried to give my parents a well filled with love.

I was hestitant to watch it since I really want a child of my own. I only made it through 1/2 of the movie before I left it. I waited outside of the… Continue
