I get it!

I have just finished reading Cami's book, and have been giving mindfully for the last 10 days or so (need to start journalling this to see and feel the momentum of the energy building from giving). My gifts have ranged from uninteruppted time spent with my 11 year old niece playing a game she loves; making the phone call I would not have normally made to tell someone special how much they mean to me; leaving the extra change in the tip jar at the coffee shop; becoming a foster mom for rescued Golden Retrievers. Kinda normal stuff, not biggies, but how they have already made big changes. I am overwhelmed at the bounty of great people , unusual opportunities and experiences that have entered my life. I have struggled for years and years with eating disorders, and have tried help of many kinds to overcome these personal demons. Now I feel the way out will be through giving. And giving. And mindful connections to others. It's just a hunch, but I'm sure there is something there.. I'll write more on this in coming days. Thanks for reading. Jane
