So today I turned 36. Feels a lot like 35. Heck, it feels like 30. But with more tattoos.
I'm excited to challenge myself to do something that is so simple, but so easy to forget to do.
I've mentioned my project to some friends and they've expressed interest in volunteering at some of the places with me. I think having company will motivate me for some of the volunteer experiences.
My office is throwing me a surprise farewell party tomorrow (yeah, I know). In lieu of a corporate gift, I've asked that they make a donation to the charity of my choice. So the first official act of (quasi) kindness will be a donation to CAMH.
I figure that sure beats a gift card for a place that I'd never shop at. And everyone who contributes gets to feel better for making a donation and making a difference in someone's life.
