My Gift to You

It is possible to give away and become richer.
Proverbs 11:24

You may have noticed on my sidebar, a little box that invites you to join me in the 29 Day Giving Challenge. This is a movement started by Cami Walker that challenges people to give away one thing for, you guessed it, 29 days.

Why? Because to see the world change, we have to do something to change the world. Plus, the best way to attract abundance into your life is to be in a perpetual state of giving and gratitude. Be an important part of the global giving movement that inspires more generosity on our planet.

The gift can be a tangible item, it can be monetary, or it can be a giving of yourself- your time, your energy, your knowledge, your kindness.

I came across Cami’s network via Unclutterer and it fit nicely with the philosophy I’ve adopted lately, about moving out the old bits of my life that don’t fit anymore, to make room for new, more positive energy. I know that seems New Age-y, but I can’t argue with success; I feel freer, happier.

What I love about this challenge is that it forces you, every day, to take time out and look for ways that you personally can help someone else. This shift in focus has a profound impact on how you approach the world.

Prayer does not change God, but it changes him who prays.
-Soren Kierkegaard

Consider the ripple effect this has the potential for! Both the action of giving, and the reaching out to others to participate, to allow for that shift in thinking.

It can be your gift to me, today.

I am looking at it as my gift to you. That’s how powerful it is.

Make a rule, and pray God to help you keep it, never, if possible, to lie down at night without being able to say, “I have made one human being, at least, a little wiser, a little happier, or a little better this day.”

-Charles Kingsley

Make this world better!
You have so much to give.
Think big! Think small! Start today!

Molly just emailed me about this family, which is “chasing Utopia” by giving away all their possessions (Thanks Molly!).
