I'm so excited.
Let's pull together to be a positive force in this world.
Over the last three years we have had over 1,100 different
Pink Saturday participants.
Isn't that amazing?
And, just think how amazing it would be if each one of you
left a comment to raise funds for these wonderful
soul-inspiring projects.
Come on. We can do it.
Visit Design Gives Back here to read more.
Here's our inspiration - Charlie!
Charlie, each and every one of us
are holding you close in our hearts and prayers.
You make us proud to call you our friend.
I have been thinking and thinking about what to post today
for my Pink Saturday blessing post.
How can I begin to share only one blessing in my life?
My life in itself is a blessing.
And every moment of every day is filled with blessings.
The first thought I have each morning when I wake is
to thank God for that day.
One of the things that I am most grateful for is that
I learned about blessings and appreciating
all of life's gifts and moments at a very young age.
You see, I was very sick when I contracted polio
just a few weeks after my seventh birthday.
I am constantly reminded of the profound impact
it had on my life. It seems strange to me that I was so
aware of the impact since I was so young.
But, somehow I have always had peace in my heart.
And, I know for a fact that I have the wonderful
blessings of that peace because God
carried me in his arms through my journey.
And, He is still carrying me each and every day.
I pray that every one can embrace that
wonderful love that is there for the taking.
He walks with me,
and He talks with me.
And He tells me I am His own.
And the joy we share
as we tarry there.
None other has ever known.
Thank you to every one of you for being
one of my life's blessings.
My love to you,
Beverly
