Awesome! (Posted by Angie)

Thats a lovely picture Birgie! I am so glad you guys are on my team!!!! Yay!!!! I am not down any but not up... so 5 lbs for me so far.

Today I made the committment to become a volunteer at Wellwood Resource Centre here in Hamilton. This is a voluntary organization based out of Henderson Cancer Clinic with many programmes to assist cancer patients and their families. I can't just sit idle anymore watching the world go by and I know I need something to do that is meaningful to me in my life. My motivation has many levels... Birgie's journey, Mom's journey and Ham's encounter with cancer as well. If I can learn, support and give somewhat of myself in the process I think that it can only be a good thing. The people I have talked to there are awesome and there is so much that they need help with. One of the suggestions was for me to work with an outreach team that visits festivals and shows promoting the support of the centre. I think I may be good at that. There is a process of acceptance though... so I may not be officially accepted until September.

The other thing I am going to do if I can get John to agree to having Jenny overnight on Thursdays is mediation classes to connect with my spirituality. Its right here in Ancaster out in the country and I have a really good feeling about the people I have connected with. This can tie into Reiki and other alternative energy therapies. I am so excited about these things and I think this will open up my life more. I feel hopeful and excited for the first time in a really really long time.

Anyways... I have to go make dinner.... Love you all and thank you for helping me open my eyes to new possibilities.

Saying for today - Without Dreams there is no Reality!

Love,
Angie
