Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
I chose to give because I want to get out of the scarcity mind set. I know there is abundance in the universe, and I want to be part of it by giving. Also I always feel rushed without watching what is really important in life. I want to be able to shift my point of view to look how wonderful the world is.
What I'd most like to receive:
A peace of mind to make precious people around me happy and smiling. and ability to appreciate abundance in all aspects of my life.

Day 2

It was very very cold in NYC. My friend came over from Japan, and we ordered in Japanese food because it was too cold to go out. I gave a bit extra tip to the delivery person. Thanks to him, we were able to get our dinner in comfort of our home. He gave me a big smile in return. It was very nice.

Day 1 again

I stayed at home most of the day. I cooked dinner for my husband as a gift, and didn't complain when later I found that he was going out with his co workers and didn't need dinner. That was extra gift from me.

Starting again from Day 1 tomorrow

My life got so busy in the past few weeks since I started the challenge. I am starting again tomorrow from Day 1 to reset my energy. I found that the most difficult part for me is not giving part, it is keeping the journal part... but i will try to write it down even on my iphone or my notebook so that i can be more consious of my action.

Day 3

My boss asked me to get her a cup of coffee. I bought her one without telling her that I paid for it. Just to show my thanks secretly.

Welcome to 29 Gifts! I'm so glad you decided to join us.

Enjoy your 29 Days and don't forget to share some stories to help inspire others. If you need help posting in your Personal Giving Blog, follow these directions.

Help Us Grow: Please help spread the word. We're striving to reach our goal of 29,000 committed givers, and you can help: Send this Invitation to friends, write about the challenge and include a badge or our video on your website, blog, facebook, or myspace page.

The book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life - authored by 29 Gifts founder Cami Walker is now in stores. You can also buy through Amazon.

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
