The 29 Day Challenge

Check it out.
So, I joined the 29 day challenge. The goal is to give away 29 different things in 29 days. The "things" do not have to be tangible items - time or services can also be things. 

When I registered on the site, it asked me why I wanted to join the challenge. I think this is it in a nutshell... I live in a world of abundance, where I know that I have more than I need. I am fortunate enough to never have had to think about where my next meal is coming from or where I am going to find a warm bed. Most importantly, I am surrounded by an incredibly supportive network of family and friends who are constantly enriching my life in ways both tangible and intangible. I also know I need to constantly challenge myself to walk the path of social justice. If I believe that this world needs to work every day to become more just, more equitable, and more humane, then I need to do my part. 

I'll chronicle the next 29 days in this blog. I encourage you to join me on my journey.
