Day 29. Phew!

 Today I wrote a nice note to a former colleague from when I worked at Lehman Brothers.  I'd been angry about how he behaved during the bankruptcy, and somewhat traumatized by the whole experience.  I guess this was the gift of forgiveness.  I forgive him!  We were all under extreme stress, and him more than most because of his huge family to support.  Phew.  That feels good.  These 29 days have been a wonderful experience.  THANK YOU to all of you for following along and supporting me through…See More

Day 26

 Today I sent a great book to a friend who'll be laying about for the next few weeks, recovering from rotator cuff surgery.  And a funny card!  I'd been feeling angry and sad about something in my life, and my unprovoked act of kindness made me feel a bit better.See More

Day 21

 Today I introduced two people to each other.  They have a number of challenges in common, and each of them has chosen not to become a client of mine at work, but I thought they'd benefit from knowing each other.  And they did!  It was so much fun to watch them check each other out and realize all that they have in common. And I was delighted to be able to connect Cami Walker with someone who will write a story about her upcoming visit to Pittsburgh---which will certainly be a gift to all who…See More

Day 17 and 18

 Last night, for the second time in a week (!!!) I was able to take my husband to something special through my work.  Opening night of a play, and we sat right behind one of his HEROes in the world of theater, a wonderful director he admires.  (This hasn't happened at all until this week, so it's been a fun bonanza of specialness!) And today, I spent an hour with a woman who's looking for a job and advised her.  I've already sent something her way and will send her resume to two other folks as…See More

Day 17

 I invited my husband to join me at a really cool work event (backstage tour of the Met with clients) and it was a really fun thing for him.  It's nice to be able to share some of the perks of my work with him.  See More

Day 16

 Today I contributed (with husband's endorsement!) to our local public radio station.  We love public radio and appreciate it so much.  It's a pleasure to be able to help them out.See More

Day 12

 Today, after a conversation with a woman I admire a great deal and hope to know for a long time, she said to me, "thank you for making me feel important."  Wow!  I have no idea what I did, specifically, but I seem to have had an effect.  It feels good! And this afternoon, at the request of a friend, I donated $20 for a hungry family to have a nice Thanksgiving dinner.See More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
Because I have plenty, and really enjoy giving. I love to give away things, and money, and favors, and introductions that are helpful to others. Doing so in a focused purposeful way will be a lovely devotional practice and a fascinating study in how the world works!
What I'd most like to receive:
Prayers for continued healing. And introductions to people who might like to become new clients for my business: I distribute a line of pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplements that have dramatically changed my life.
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
My wonderful cousin Emily
About me:
I am on a health and wellness journey, and am blessed to be doing work that I'm very passionate about, with people who stretch and inspire me. In my nutrition business, I work with Dr. Christiane Northrup and a league of wellness entrepreneurs around the world.

Today, after I helped spread the word about 29 gifts to my contacts in Pittsburgh, an article appeared about Cami's upcoming appearance there.  I was delighted to be able to help give back to Cami, to the MS society, and to spread the word about this work to others in western PA!

 

Here's the article:…

Today, my husband and I spent two hours cheering on the slower marathoners who were walking the last few miles of the NYC marathon.  And I gave my silly old cowbell to a VERY enthusiastic family who were waiting for their marathoner to go by (after 6 hours... bless them all).
