29-Day Giving Challenge

Where do I begin? Today was truly an abundant, blessing-filled day. My intended gift was to buy coffee for a friend that I was meeting - I thought my gift would be to treat her with her drink while we caught up. Then, I just went on a mad giving spree! I wrote an email to tell a friend's boss about a tremendous compliment I overheard about her. I wrote to the Houston Dynamo front office to tell them that the guy who manages my season ticket account is a tremendous asset to the organization. I gave the guy washing windshields at the intersection the last $2 in my wallet. Normally, not having any cash would really freak me out, but it didn't. AT ALL. I was "rewarded" with a front-row parking spot when I was in a rush this afternoon, AND an incredibly relaxing walk this evening where I got to see lots of blue herons and egrets as the sun set. I can already sense a change in how I feel, and it's only Day 2. I can't even imagine what Day 20 will feel like!
