Dec. 7--Day 16

I have relocated to a new city in a new state and start a new job tomorrow. Lots of activity with gifts given and received since I started the challenge (including the new job and a temporary place to stay, among many gifts for which I am very grateful). Today I will go to a Bank of America branch to donate to the Jake French Fund.I read a story in the newspaper yesterday about Jake French, a 24-year-old man in Dufur, Oregon who is trying to recover his life after being left a paraplegic from a…See More

Hey - so happy I could pass it on. I have been seaching blogs for chemo each day to pass this info to. And I made a contribution as a gift one day. I will do it again too.

Day 8

Gave $5 to Operation Smiley Face, and took a bag of clothes to Goodwill. Extended past my boundaries to introduce myself and say hello to a person in my Sunday ecstatic dance group. Yesterday, I gave $10 to a homeless person who was carrying a sign at a traffic intersection (something I've never, ever done before) and $6 to two Salvation Army bell-ringers (ditto). Also put just-bought grocery items in the local Food Bank collection barrel (never did that before either). Feels great!!! I…See More

Thank you Toye for perfectly manifesting all my lifelong fears about putting myself out there in the world for the first time ever and being criticized, humiliated, chastised, judged and put down. It is totally brilliant, no kidding. Perfect! A…

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
My life is at a crossroads at the moment on all levels -- relationships, finances, living space and career. Because I'm constantly overwhelmed by my own needs for help at the moment, committing to giving to others will redirect my focus on the abundance that I already have, rather than what I perceive as lack.
What I'd most like to receive:
The ability to be who I really am in every moment -- and know, in certainty with my whole self and not just intellectually, that who I really am is the power and presence of God, infinite abundance, infinite joyfulness and peace and infinite unconditional love and appreciation. And the ability to express who I really am in the world.

Day 1 of the challenge

Posted on November 23, 2009 at 11:00am 2 Comments

For my first give-away on Sunday, Nov. 22, I wrote and sent a guest blog post to my friend Juli, who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. My guest post will likely appear in December on Juli's blog, The Still Voice (http://thestillvoice-juli.blogspot.com), when Juli starts chemo and expects to need some substitute bloggers to fill in the gaps on days when she's not feeling well.

Interestingly enough, by the end of the day Sunday, two other friends had contacted me, offering get-togethers… Continue

Even the hardest and most painful times, when experienced at the level of the The Observer, are magnificent and brilliant. I am grateful for my life.

The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same. ~ C.C.
