1 week of giving
Day 7 was yesterday. I did the candy cane handout w/ my neice and boys 12/26 at the mall (line world that day). It was incredible-- actually cld see the tiny sparks of joy when we handed them to unsuspecting tired retail workers! Fun to give as a group too!
So far tamping down the pressure to decide/know "what gift will it b today?" and relaxing into my intention of giving as a way to ease off that perfectionistic pressure.
I am more patient and loving after 1 week. And I am reveling in validating the natural giving part of me that I had squelched out of self protection.
