Giving Back: 29 Gifts & Counting...: September 2022

August 2011-
I am starting a 29-Day Challenge to give one gift each day and see how it affects my life. I have always considered myself a giver, but I feel this challenge will challenge and focus me on giving more. I was inspired by the book 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving can Change your Life. I ran across it 2 years ago in a bookstore in Springfield, MO, and I titled a piece of paper 29 Gifts. I found that same piece of paper the other day, and I saw it as a sign to start the challenge. You can learn more about the book and challenge at http://givingchallenge.ning.com/.

After 1 month of giving, I have continued this challenge in giving and sharing the stories with others. Hope you enjoy reading about my adventures with giving!

Day 47: Time

My gift today was time. Giving my time to change into my swimsuit and run around like a child throwing water balloons with my daughters. Jumping on the trampoline, popping water balloons, laughing, and enjoying the moment. God is good and there are little moments that help you remember how very blessed you are. This was one of these moments for me.
