day seven... rice krispie treat and word processing...

today's gifts were small and silly. at lunch, i gave my buddy matt my rice krispie treat. it's funny- i got it intending to share with him (i love me some rice krispie treat), but when he started threatening to eat it all, i said "fine! go ahead! it'll be my gift for the day!!" such a goofy example of this whole gift consciousness can make us less graspy and needy- either i get some delicious rice krispie treat, or i satisfy my gift for the day! either way i win!my other gift was spending the…See More

days four, five, and six...

it's been a whirlwind weekend of fun. on friday (day four) paul and I took the puppies down to san clemente to visit my heavenly friend greta, who is just such a giving spirit and just lights up the lives of everyone she comes into contact with. it was her birthday last week, so i wanted to bring her a present, and i wasn't sure what to bring, and finally decided to give her a string of prayer flags that i bought in northern india in 2005 and have been carrying around with me ever since. it's…See More

day three... lots to think about...

it's the end of the day and i am not really sure what to count as my gift. it's been an intense day- i'm feeling flooded with things that are coming to me, that i'm receiving, and my little "gifts" feel underwhelming in comparison.this morning i got muffins for everyone at my chiropractor's office, which they appreciated, but even before i gave them they told me that they'd talked about me in their staff meeting and how much they are going to miss me when i move. i almost cried- they are such a…See More

day two! pint of blood!!

Posted on April 7, 2010 at 1:03pm 1 Comment

i know there are people who donate blood all the time, but i up to now have not been one of them! in 2003 i went in for a blood test and fainted when the needle went into my arm, and ever since then i've been terrified of giving blood. recently i decided to get over that fear, and today i gave blood at a red cross drive for the first time! the nurses were so kind- even though they were understaffed they recognized how terrified i was and had someone come over and talk to me (about my dogs, what… Continue

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
i fully believe that we are not meant to hold onto things (objects, ideas, beliefs, etc) forever, that on one level each of us is a channel. to live fully, we have to be open to receive and to give, to get and to let go, on a regular basis. if we don't give, then we become blocked- we become physically and energetically unable to receive anything new.
What I'd most like to receive:
a sense of abundance, & whatever experiences and gifts are meant to move my soul along!
