October 23, 2014 The Gift of Giving

The gift of giving is presentation from the heart, transitioned through the Soul.

In recent months the journey in my life has taken some twists and turns that have brought to light the gift of giving and just how awesome and humbling it is. Truth and sincerity seen through eyes that are pure and devoted reaching out to offer self without any expectancy of return. Knowing that a piece of ones self is given and accepted with humility and thankfulness is awesome and at the same time humbling. It is proven in an act of kindness, a physical gift and especially presence in time of need. It often requires nothing more than that, your presence.

When my mother passed away I was standing at the door greeting those who were coming to pay their respects. A couple came through the door, one in a wheel chair and the other pushing her. I totally came unglued on seeing them. Her health was failing and her husband and family tried to talk her out of coming but she insisted on being there. I greeted her with tears in my eyes and she said I just had to be here and smiled. It wasn't too many months later she herself was called home to our father in heaven. It was a lesson never forgotten. That was almost 14 years ago. It was truly a gift from the heart and soul.     


Kindness and faithful love pursue me every day of my life. I make my home in the house of Yahweh for all time to come.

This post will be a fairly short one. I recently received the package from Maria. It was a very pleasant surprise. There were a lot of oo's and ah's when the package was opened with all the goodies in there. I just had to take some photos and share them with you. Here is a picture of all the things that were in the package.


I must say I was not expecting this. But it certainly came at a time when it is very much appreciated. Thank you Maria.

I'm going to try to post a very special card on Sunday. Until then, remember to LOVE THE DETAILS.
