Gift 6: Talk with an stranger

          Last night, I was feeling very sad. For some reason Iv'e been feeling lonely, not necessarily romantic wise, but lonely in the sense that there is some kind of void within me. I looked like I was fine in the outside, but inside, I was screaming, with no one to hear me. So I wounded up IMing a few people here on this site, asking about being compassionate and knowing Jesus. I had explained to them that everything in my current situation right now is not going as smoothly as I wanted.…See More

Gift 5

You all know as well as I do that patience can be such an upstanding quality to have. The truth is that even I can get impatient, we all do. Some times when I look at my mothers horrendous relationship with her boyfriend, I wonder, how am I supposed to deal with that as I'm going to college?So I'm trying to distract myself with everything I have been going though lately. I really want to be able to do my best with everything that comes my way, but then again dont we all? If coming here visiting…See More

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I like giving because its good for the giver as well as the receiver. It also helps distract me from whatever problems i may be having, when im in service of others. I just feel a sense of peace, but i also want to give so i can brighten other peoples days too, and enhance their level of happiness :)
What I'd most like to receive:
Love, warmth, and kindness from others. Ive always admired kind warm hearted people and i always used to say, when i grow up, i want to be like that kind lady.
Warm hearted people are amazing and id love to have many kind friends :)
How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
I was browsing threw the internet on how to be kind in stuff, cuz i had admired nice poeple so much i had wanted to be one of them and thats how i came here.
About me:
Im just a girl who wants to pay it foward and be kind so that people know that goodness lives in this world.

Possible gift 7

Ive been thinking about what to do from my 7th gift, as some of you might have read through my previous post. I'm realizing that I'm trying to find a balance between spirituality, and living in the present here on earth. I have always been trying for what works best for me, spiritual wise. It's strange though, or maybe not, that one set religion has never fully satisfied me.

You…

Gift 7..ideas?

Well, I'm back...again. Right...hehee..so I haven't continued the challenge in a long while..I suppose the cliche of " I don't have enought time" will cut it. However, depite my absense, I will not use any more excusees for my blasphemy on not going through with this challenge. I wasnt being too serious there, but I just don't know what kind of gifts to give out, meanwhile I feel a bit empty inside. I mean I'm not miserable, but I would like to be more happy. Can anyone out there tell me…

OVer the past several days, it has been rough for me, but I'm grateful that whenever something bad happens, or when you feel like your not commited or worthy of anything, there is always a chance to be inspired, a chance to feel worthy, a chance to be beautiful. So about the gift.

 

For the past months, a lot of what I consider to be my closest friends has come out to me as being gay, lesbian, or bisexual. It's hard enough being basterdized by what we like, so I'm grateful…

May today there be peace within.  May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.  May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.  May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.  May you be content with yourself just the way you are.  Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love.  It is there for each and every one of us."
