29-Day Giving Challenge

So far I haven't given any gift in particular. I have been waiting for the "right moment". I feel like I will just know when the opportunity arises. I have, however, realized that I do a lot to help others and that now I am just more aware of it. I find myself looking for opportunities to be of assistance to others, which feels good. I offered to help a lady at the grocery store who was struggling with kids and several items in her hands, but she didn't accept my help. I still felt good for trying. I also noticed I am being way more patient with my 2 year old which, I guess, is a gift. I'm still gonna wait for the "moment" to gift someone, but I can tell I feel happy and peaceful inside just for committing to this challenge.

Welcome Heather!!!  I'm relatively new to the giving challenge myself.  It does seem to bring with it peace and joyfulness.  Thank you for your post.  Although the woman you offered to assist didn't accept your assistance, she knows you made the offer.  That in and of itself is a gift not to be overlooked.
