Linda Bierings commented on Vangogh's blog post Day ~10
"I think the side effect comes from being more consious of all the good things that are just there in our lives but we simply overlook them. Being aware of them makes me feel rich, good, calm and centered and in the flow."

"Ik vind de red ribbons wel vroliijk. Ze doen me aan de pink ribbons denken. Wel een grap zeg dat je ze gewoon kunt versturen, ik dacht dat je ze moest kopen. Leek me logisch. Ik ga eens kijken of ik er een verstuurd krijg."

"I secretly give you a compliment from The Netherlands on your blog. This compliment comes from far far overseas away and is hardly to be seen. Maybe secret givers will spot it but for most people it will stay invisable ;-)"

"Hi Hissy Stitch, I like the way you write. You have good humor so you gave me the gift of some smiles on my face while reading some of your blogs. And that for sure counts as gifts on your 12th day!!"

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
In essence giving and receiving are the same. This is principle three in Attitudinal Healing. I think 29-gifts is about healing my attitude, about chancing my point of view, to see how lucky I am to be alive and be in this beautiful world instead of seeing a dreadful world full of suffering and pain. I like to be sane ;-)
What I'd most like to receive:
Anything. Ok, maybe not anything because I don't like it if somebody wants to dump their own shit on my plate ;-)
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
Through the patientplatform for lupus
About me:
I have lupus and at this moment it is pretty active because I am allergic to beepoison and I am in a program to help that go away. Last injection didn't go down very well and gave me a very very allergic reaction and that now makes the lupus active. Mainly it is my skin that is affect but also I am very very tired.
Furthermore I am very funny, generous, social and I love people.
Do you agree to read and follow the 29Gifts Code of Conduct once you join our site?
Yes

Third day = Birthday

Posted on March 19, 2011 at 6:30am 3 Comments

Today is an easy giving day for me because I will go to a birthdayparty ;-) But.... it was pretty confrontating to get the gift I want to give. Last week I saw a suitable present but didn't buy it because the friend that was with me at the time suggested to buy a nicer version in a different shop. Today it turned out that this shop isn't open on saterdays. It is a shop were they sell products made by disabled people and they are not working in the weekends.

Today I feel extremely…

Second Day 'Get out of bed'

Posted on March 18, 2011 at 3:09am 9 Comments

I heard Cami say in an interview. "This prescription Mabli gave me to give 29 gifts in 29 days, really is about learning to receive". When I came up with the idea yesterday to not only focus on the giving but also on the receiving I thought writing down 29 things I received that day would be a good instrument, wasn't it that when I sat down yesterdayevening to do so I more or less got a writersblock. It was too difficult of a task for my brain so instead I replaced this 'job' into… Continue

First Day

Posted on March 17, 2011 at 9:11am 5 Comments

Yesterday I read about the 29 gifts in a Dutch journal for Lupuspatients and today I started my 29 days. I was a bit down because of being very tired and also because my occupational therapist makes me rest a lot. More pauses during the day in which I really have to lie down. I am allowed to spent 20 point per day. One point is equal to half an hour of light activity. Heavy activity is good for 3 points. When I lie down I gain one point per half hour. So I do have to lie down otherwise I do…

Hi Linda

I am a New Zealander and it is where I live now. For a month this year I was in France. It's complicated but I don't want an ex to know I am back in New Zealand. Ah my past! I have travelled quite a lot but have never been to the Netherlands. Thanks for your gift. That was very thoughtful and sweet of you.

Thank You Pictures, Comments, Images, Graphics
