Hi Friends,
Earlier this year I met a very nice woman who told me that her father was an inspirational speaker who had written a book. "Oh, I love inspirational reading!" I told her and I shared with her the 29 Gifts book. She asked to borrow it, and without hesitation, I gave it to her. In return she gave me a copy of her father's book to keep.
I hadn't expected to give my 29 Gifts copy to her, as it had been a gift from my mom, but unfortunately, she moved away and the book was never returned. Oh well, I thought, I'm sure I'll get another, and I left it at that. An unexpected gift giving.
A few months went by and I was thinking about that book, and how I really wanted another copy.
Shortly after thinking about the book, My mother-in-law invited me to go to the Goodwill with her. It happened to be the first Saturday of the month, and on that day everything is 50% off. I love thrift stores, garage sales and estate sales, so I was happy to go with her to look for some bargains. I was browsing the book isle, and-you guessed it-There it was! The 29 Gifts book. I purchased the book for $2. So I gave an unexpected gift and I found one, unexpectedly!
