You may know about or have been a part of our 2015-2016 “300 Days of Gratitude” Challenges on KindSpring.org. I wrote about our journey recently, and about our origin inspiration (Mike Albrough) here: 300+ -The Journey So Far
For the”300″ series, we did 17 consecutive 21-day challenges. It was great to be connected with friends, love ones and people from all over the world. So, I’m really happy to invite you to today to a brand new series as well as to a brand new challenge called “Reverence.”
“Reverence” begins on June 11th. It was written by KindSpring and “The Soul of WoMen.” Since this will be my first time with the challenge, I don’t know a lot about it except that it was really well received.
Here’s the link: https://www.kindspring.org/challenge/join/1661
Our new gratitude series, “300,000+ Days of Gratitude” began in December, 2017. “Reverence” is the 7th in the series. For the “300k+” series, we’re doing a challenge a month using the KindSpring templates as well as new and original content. We’re also continuing the weekly “Gratitude Journal” bonus challenges.
I hope to see you! (=

I confess there was another reason for halting the daily photos for under1000skies. I struggle with panic disorder and agoraphobia. Since we began three years ago, I have yet to go to the city and personally hand an artist pack to any homeless person. I am good at organization and get many things done online but until I was able to do the work I was asking my volunteers to do I felt like a fraud. I believe this is what I need to do next — the next-right thing. I need to find a way to become personally face-to-face involved. When I learned about the ministroke and damage to emotion and language centers of my brain, I believed that having a label and a physical reason and starting point for everything that’s wrong with my brain was a cure in and of itself.. I believed naming it and knowing it’s source would make it lose it’s power over me. This seemed to work for a while but I’m back to the same implosion of space, finding it difficult to push beyond boundaries again. I thought I should tell you this because you’ve been generous with your support, and with providing beautiful quotes and photographs, and this only added to my guilt of being unable to do what is the absolute heart of this service: to meet these artists, these men and women who are currently between homes, to speak to them and ask them personally what they find beautiful, and to tell them about my dream of connecting creative souls like them around the world through photography and the Internet. Until I can do that I’m just propping up other peoples’ good work — or at least that’s how it feels to me. Thank you for listening. 💕.

The theme for the month of December is “joy.” If you have a favorite quote about “joy,” please leave a comment! As always, we would love to feature your creative visions. When we show each other what we find beautiful, we get a glimpse into each others’ hearts.
May you find joy every day.
I hope you’re having a beautiful day. ♡
