The Gift Keeps on Giving

The LA Times just released an interview with the author of The Gift, Lewis Hyde.

More Blessings

One of the recipients of a recent blessing package sent me a beautiful gift in return, her self published book Spread Your Wings and Fly: An Origami Fold-and-Tell with a set of deep purple paper cranes. What a lovely gift!

I never anticipated people returning blessings to me when I started this project. But I am glad to practice being a joyful recipient. So much inspiring creativity abounds in this world. I am also hopeful for the future of the human race because of the tremendous positive creativity I am honored to witness nearly every day from my little corner of the world.

A Serendipitous Blessing For Me

Today is my birthday and serendipitously I received a reciprocal package in gratitude for a blessing package I sent out a few weeks ago. Included was a beautiful handmade card and lavendar wand that smells divine. Although I never think about my gifting being reciprocated, this a spectacular blessing to receive.

She also donated some postage for future packages. What a lovely way to pay it forward!
