Unfortunately, my first Ipod went to the place where all good Ipods go...the dump. SO, after receiving my brand new replacement in the mail last week, I immediately checked out some books on
Wilbor and downloaded them to my Ipod. One book made the list,
29 Gifts by Cami Walker.

The book is about a woman who struggles with her new diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis and how she was prescribed a task of giving 29 Gifts in 29 days. The whole point of this challenge is to find something positive and meaningful to do for others EVERY day. It doesn't have to be money or extravagance but can be as easy as giving someone your time.
The point to the challenge is to give with an open heart and to give consciously. One isn't supposed to give gifts out of obligation but to do so to honestly give without hope of receipt. I think this is such a good idea and if everyone would practice something so potentially simple, then what great things could we accomplish?
I always love hearing stories of the underdog winning or someone showing such acts of generosity. SO, I hope with the following blogs to chronicle my 29 day challenge for you. Wish me luck!
