A New Year: Giving Back


One of the recurring themes in my life lately has been Generosity.  Through listening to a number of inspirational sermons, ideas have been stirring within my heart on how I could give back to my community because I have been so blessed in my own life.  I wanted to start simple and keep it personal.  I wanted to touch those who give so much of themselves, but may be under appreciated, or those who may have forgotten that they are special.  So, I decided to gift Starbucks (something that I love) gift cards within a thank you card and randomly hand them out as I go about my daily life throughout the next year to those who may need a pick-me-up or whose zest for service to others and life is overwhelmingly inspiring.  Seeking these opportunities will hopefully force me to slow down and open my heart to all that is around me and encourage me to maintain a generous and grateful heart every day.
