This week was the end of my giving challenge..and it's Thanksgiving, how appropriate!

It has been an amazing journey, and I am so grateful for the friends I have made here and for the new perspective I have as a result of living a more purposeful life. I realize that this was intended to help us be mindful of others, but I also realize that the greatest gift was a complete sense of freedom and love of myself that I never would have imagined I could feel. Digging deep and connecting with my innerself and loving who she is, completely..for the first time really, was life changing. Loving yourself makes it so much easier to love others.. giving then, is not something you need to think about anymore consciously, it becomes a way of life. I am deeply grateful for all that I have accomplished and have so much more yet to do...thank you all for supporting me and for allowing me to blend your stories into the fabric of my new life...Peace, Blessings and Much Love to ALL!! ♥♥
