Creativity and Collaboration

Earlier this evening one of my kids asked me if I was working on my blog post.

That is normally what I do on Sundays, after all. But this time, I wasn't.

In fact, I'd forgotten all about it.

Instead, I was working on setting up a fundraising web page for a wonderful woman who wants to donate Signs of Kindness to all of the public schools in her town. She is inviting friends to help by making contributions all through her birthday month of December.

Pretty cool, huh?

I love the way this project has brought forth so much creativity and generosity from people who have experienced the power of these simple human messages and just want to share them. Once you picture the positive impact that signs could have in a particular location, figuring out how to get them there can be fun and easy!

So many people want to help. They want their money and their actions to make a positive difference. And this project offers a lot of opportunities for that.

Nearly seven years ago, I came up with a "dream statement" during a LifeResults course that ended up laying the foundation for the Gift of Happiness: My dream is a world where all people know their value, see the value in others, and freely share their gifts.

It makes me so happy to see that unfolding, not only through the specific sign messages, but in all the ways the signs themselves have been purchased, gifted, shared and asked for.

If you'd like to get in on the giving and receiving action yourself, the holidays are a great time. Maybe a friend or family member would like to have Signs of Kindness for their home, school, or business. Or maybe you'd like to put signs or Connection Cards on your own wish list?

If the desire is there, there is a way to make it happen.
