Day 341: Generosity

(For Saturday August 2)

Today was a culmination of the generosity of my sister-in-love's parents, Jim and Vicki.  The wedding, the reception, the logistics of it all, and today an open house reception at their lovely home to continue the celebration of Brad and Adele's marriage.  Not only have they been extremely generous but hospitable, which I have mentioned before.  Their generosity has been a blessing to not just the bride and groom and their immediate families but to all the family and friends who joined us this weekend.  I am so grateful for the generosity I was the recipient of this weekend, I'm also grateful for the generosity of others in my life who extend themselves on behalf of my comfort, my joy, my benefit.  What a beautiful investment in the lives of others when we, yes me included, extend generosity.  In what ways have you been blessed by both giving and receiving generosity?

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
