Hi Lubabat, lovely story thanks for sharing. I was wondering if you got a small present from me last year around your birthday time? I was not sure if you have the same address of 2 years ago, but sent it to that address anyway ( because I…

The boys were hilarious!  They were 8 or 9 years old.  Totally speechless, with jaws dropped to the floor.  I smiled and walked out to my car.  They came running out after me in the parking lot with their mom trailing behind,…

mary that is an awesome story! Wish I could have seen those boy's faces. Did they say anything, or were they speechless? Oh and you reminded me to say that my son was especially excited to receive that gift at that moment because he was going…

Thank you Sweetie. YES, it feels great! Even though I consider myself a "regular giver" I realize that there is always more to give and someone to give to, BUT it is NOT always easy!  Hopefully, the more I do it the easier it becomes,…

Lubabat Scotland commented on Cami Walker -- 29Gifts Founder's blog post 'Dec 29 Give: Letting Go Of Old "Things"... Old Ways + $1,300 donation to the MS Society'
Wow what an incredible donation that was for the MS Society! I know it will be put to good use. I also think that it is very generous of you to release 25% . That's is a pretty significant chunk. May it come back to you many times…

Giving Away Something You Never Thought You Could/Would

I hope I'm putting this in the right place, but if not please forgive me. OK, I received the email from 29gifts in my inbox that was talking about giving away one thing you didn't think you could part with. Well I have done the challenge a few times, butpretty much just ignored that part. Well, for some reason (even though I am not in an "official round" of giving) I felt inspired to do that NOW.The minute I asked myself "what shall I give?" I knew what the answer would be, and I did not want…See More

I finally "get it" so now it's time to give it all away (all that I've learned that is).

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I am choosing to give daily because it is my passion. I LOVE giving, and I always have. Unfortunately I wasn't doing it as much as I was thinking about doing it. Now I am committed to daily, concious, giving. It's something that I intend to be a part of my life, for the rest of my life. I am forever grateful to Cami and Mbali for 29 Gifts. It has put me on the path that I wanted to be on.
What I'd most like to receive:
I would most like to receive all of the gifts that the Universe (God) has for me.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?

About me:
I was "blessed" with Multiple Sclerosis and have been living with it since the mid '90s. I consider it a blessing because it helped me figure out what was really important in my life. For me that's family, creating and giving. Now I focus my time and energy on those things, and I am the happiest I've ever been even though I live with health challenges.
Update: I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer in August 2009. My intital reaction was shock and fear, but I quickly decided to focus my attention on what makes me happy, and that's giving. I think it has made all the difference in my attitude through this journey.

Yesterday Day 8/Rnd 5 - A Giving Spree

Posted on November 9, 2009 at 11:00am 5 Comments

I had a chemo treatment last Monday. The first week after can be rough on the body, and it has been for me. So yesterdy (Sunday) I decided to go on a little gifting spree and see if I could spread some smiles to others. It turned out to be good day of giving for me, and while I am still feeling the effects of the chemo my spirits are high.



Here are some of the gifts I gave:



1. Put money in the tip jar at Starbucks even though I didn't buy a drink.

2. Gave $1 ea to two… Continue

Day 7 Round 5 - This is CRAZY!

Posted on November 7, 2009 at 7:56am 2 Comments

The other day I blogged that I was going to challenge myself to not only give a gift a day but also give away an item that I own. It has been amazing at how many things have been coming to my mind that I had never thought of giving away. There is even stuff that I had forgotten that I had! It is further proof to me that when you make a decision the Universe supports you in getting it done. I am keeping a list of the items that I have given away and will post them all at the end of the… Continue

Round 5/Stepping It Up - A Gift PLUS A Give Away

Posted on November 3, 2009 at 9:30am 4 Comments

I am committed to daily giftng, but I think I can step it up a little. This month I have decided to add on to the challenge. I will be giving a gift a day + a give away a day. The "give away" will be me releasing one item that I own. To really make it a challenge the same item can only be counted once. So if I give away 20 books that counts as 1 give away. Today is day 3 of my fifth round, and I haven't given away any personal items yet (I tried to yesterday but the person I was giving it to… Continue

The End of Round 4 - YES to Receiving

Posted on November 1, 2009 at 1:00am 8 Comments

I love giving. I always have. Receiving on the other hand was much harder. I thought I was being "polite" by turning down gifts and kind gestures from people, but now I realize that giving is a two sided coin. When you give you will receive. That's just the way it is. So this round I said yes to receiving and WOW did I receive! As a result I feel so blessed, and that makes me want to give more! It's amazing how that works!



This giving journey has been amazing, and I look… Continue

Gifts of Treats in the Mail

Posted on October 23, 2009 at 9:30am 6 Comments



I'm giving (still going on):

I live on the main street of my town, and we get THOUSANDS, and I mean thousands of trick-or-treaters down here. But the funny thing is, none of them come up the steps to our apartment! So in order to be a part of things I dress up as Snow White and hand out treats while my son is trick-or-treating. I'm known as "Snow On The Go!". Due to the chemotherapy treatments, I'm not sure… Continue

Thank you Father God, that this year, Lubabat will be able to walk with me, as I wear her smiley face cancer awareness pin yet again, in the ACS Relay for Life. Her spirit and her restored and new body will flow around the track with me effortlessly. We will continue together to fight for the cure. She even holds my heart now as the tears steam down my face and I cannot see the keys to type. My mighty sister, you taught me strength that I never recognized and grace that I only dreamed of. Your efforts in my world alone will ripple out to thousands! Thank You God, for bringing us together, Thanks You Lord for creating a teacher such as her, and Thank You Lubabat for shining your beacon, so we could find you.

Amen
