I think I remember you talking about this before.  Mission accomplished (pun intended)!  You must be so proud of yourself.  I have no doubt those boxes made a difference to a child.  Sounds like you did a really good job.

Mission Boxes 2010 and 2011

This past year, I promised to give 20 mission boxes for children to a church that my friend is a member of. We decided to do this in lieu of gifts to each other at Christmas. I started collecting things to fill my mission boxes (plastic shoe boxes) last January.At first, I thought, "what was I thinking to dedicate myself to filling 20 mission boxes?". As each month went by, I bought things for the kids and stored the items in my closet. I filled 10 boxes for girls and 10 boxes for boys. I had…See More

A Simple Cross for Spike

My dog Spike died this past year after spending 15yrs here on earth as a faithful companion. When he passed away, I ordered a simple cross made out of mesquite wood. I had put his name on it and the dates of his birth and death. Tonight, I decided to add an angel and a celtic cross to add beauty to the simple cross. When I had finished, I straightened up the table and was putting up some things and found a bright copper penny with the date of 2010 laying on the table. I know this was Spike's…See More

i love the fact you use "visualization techniques" in your teaching the kids how to dive. this can also be used in our everyday lives.

My gift to myself, Healing

Posted on September 21, 2010 at 6:43pm 3 Comments

Today i called in sick from work. Had a headache and some back problems. I needed this time alone today just for me. I use meditation and colors as my focus. The colors that appeared were not forced but came on their own. The colors appreared in a small ring and then grew bigger as the ring came closer. The middle color was a beautiful plum circled by a ring of gold. So healing and comforting. Felt i needed to share this and maybe someone in the group will explore this same method.
