What's an ARM PARTY, and what could it do for you??
I have a set group of bracelets that visually take me to places and times that live in my heart. My Arm Party reminds me of the life I am PARTICIPATING in and how I got here...it's a gift to my Present! My Arm Party is a literal "present" to myself, grounding me and reminding me of my VALUES. I use my Arm Party as a gentle guide to how I want to live this ONE WILD AND PRECIOUS LIFE! (left to right) DONATE LIFE--How can I give more, literally! Stella&Dot Sterling Cross Cuff__ It took me 42 years to realize that GOD=LOVE, so simple! Jeweled Heart Cuff-- Tom and I deduced he gave it to me in 1992 or 1993, an early sign of what was to come! Stella&Dot Spirit Bracelet (supporting Autism Awareness)--Just watch a parent with their child with special needs and you see the faithfulness in the parent, the commitment to care for that child. I have more compassion for all people because of my relationship with those with special needs. There is a gentleness in me that wasn’t there before. thankful-grateful-blessed After the Gift of Life living-donor appreciation luncheon last weekend, I called my Hubby, My Partner in Everything, Tom, my #1 FAN. Yesterday, Stacey (pictured, 2 weeks post kidney donation) chimed in and assured me that she, in fact, is my #1 FAN. Huh! Apparently we have a full fledged debate going, as my Lauren, 9yr old, said she is HANDS DOWN my #1 FAN... OK then! So now the question becomes, not WHO is my biggest fan, but in fact, HOW DID I GET SO LUCKY? For information regarding Altruistic Organ Donation, here's a great local resource http://www.donors1.org/ and I'd love to share my experience too! thankful-grateful-blessed Seriously one of the funniest, most heartfelt "drug reactions", albeit loony, I have ever seen... |
