I qualify for many if not all twelve step programs. I am truly an addict so given the opportunitty - I can do almost everything to excess!
Every day since I have started this has been rewarding. I find myself thinking differently-Yes Already!!!!! I find myself being gentler and kinder to everyone all the time. I'm not trying to be sainted but it sure feels good. Today I reached out to…
I had an epiphany the other day. The words Made a Decision To turn our will and our lives over to the care of God. So I make the decision over and over again but then I take it back over and over again. I am very stubborn and thick headed. So when I…
So it is said that God gives you exactly what you need. I woke up this morning in the pit of despair. I am going through so many things right now including a breakup that believe me has been a long time coming but i am grieving the loss and can't ge…
Where we can share stories, writing resources and about writing in general.
I have been interested in Natural Health and Healing for the last five years or so. You wouldn't know of it by the way I have been taking care of myself. I skip meals, eat crap, drink too much coffee and my body is revolting. My complexion is bad, I…

Day Four It's Only Just Begun and Already Miracles are Happening
Every day since I have started this has been rewarding. I find myself thinking differently-Yes Already!!!!! I find myself being gentler and kinder to everyone all the time. I'm not trying to be sainted but it sure feels good. Today I reached out to an estranged friend without expectations(Imagine that!). Guess What? My friend responded-It's amazing when I get out of my own way and let life happen...it does and with many surprises. I am looking forward to the next twenty-five days and then do it… Continue

Support our Cause of the Month
In November, we're sponsoring a cause that has been started by fellow giver, Lubabat. We are so deeply touched and impressed by Lubabat's strength of character & spirit. Lubabat was diagnosed with MS in the mid 90s and then in August of 09, she was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer. Her reaction has been so inspirational - she is thriving through giving. She is hosting a Christmas Give and her theme is "going small to make a big impact" We have named her our November Cause of the Month and would be grateful for your support!
Happy giving!
Mary

Wow, you inspire me. Thanks.
I have been so busy that i haven't had time to blog! I give something

then extend to 365 day giving! She…
Yeppers! Love ya too Deb!
What great stones and so many days of gift giving to those who I love!
I just said a little prayer for Jeff, ML. I hope he can be as comfortable as possible, and I certainly hope his family can cope. My Uncle died from a brain tumor a few years ago, It is not only hard on the person going through it, it is devastating…
Day 1 of 29 Gifts – Pot luck
Last Friday night, I attended the book launch at my local book store in Kalk Bay, Cape Town. I often go to book launches, and I love hearing the authors share their story. It is a nice vibe to be able to sit, amongst th…

After lots of time trying, we managed to find new homes for our two outdoor cats. I was very grateful to find them a good place but also really sad to see them go. I wish those kitties the very best! I took care of the process of taking the catching…
