It’s December and the charities are trying to get last-minute donations before the year end. I always find it a chore to decide which charities and how much to give. They are all so important and tell heart-wrenching stories of people in need all over the world. The letters sit on my desk for weeks begging for my attention.
Today I tackled the huge pile. But, in addressing requests, I did something different. I gave slightly more to each one, and on the memo portion of each check I wrote, “Thank you for your work!” As I wrote, I felt my energy change. It was not a chore, but an honor to support them and their work. I felt my heart opening and connecting to people in all situations, thinking of how my choices could make their lives better. I thought of individual people in villages and sent them hope. I wanted them to know that they are not alone. Change your intention, and your reality changes. I hope that their reality changes, too.
My very best wishes to you for a healthy day. Remember to move! At each commercial or when your team gets a first down, mute the tv and move your joints…neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. It matters!
