The Gift of Giving

I have recently taken on a new challenge. I love challenges! THis morning I was sent an email link to the most fantastic site, called the 29 Day Giving Challenge. It was started by a young woman with multiple sclerosis, who found happiness (check out her video on the home page) and abundance through the simple act of giving a small gift to someone else every day for 29 days in a row. This has erupted into a huge movement of giving by thousands of people across the world! Imagine.
So today is Day 1. I just joined the Global Giving Village, as one of the 29 Day Giving Challenge member suggested. I think I’ll update my giving here, to keep me honest.
You know, having CF is no picnic. But when I check out these organizations and what they do, it reminds me first, that I really have so much to be grateful for, and second, that the quickest way to happiness is to give to others. Of this, I am certain.
Now….off to the pharmacy for the third time this week!
