I can't help but think that the gifts I give aren't worthy of celebration. Is walking my husband's computer to a friends house in my pajamas after waking early and getting it to him before he leaves for work a gift? It seems like cheating. I would guess that this will be on my mind all day and I will choose to give in a better way later on today. My guess is that I will be thinking about it all day and trying to give more everyday than just once. I imagine this is day one of my journey and perhaps the consciousness of giving is a gift I am giving myself. I think I can feel the power of this already.

Took my daughter to breakfast..she loves to go...turned out to be a gift to myself because I love to spend time with her. Organizing a book drive to a local library from our book club. Signed up to help a friend who's dad died. So much to do.....I think I do these things regularly but boy is this idea lighting up my heart.
Welcome to 29 gifts! Enjoy the journey.
