“The world is not respectable;
it is mortal, tormented, confused, deluded forever;
but it is shot through with beauty, with love, with glints of courage and laughter;
and in these, the spirit blooms timidly and struggles to the light amid the thorns.”
~George Santayana~
What a busy week it has been. A struggle for sure but filled with so many rewards.
Yesterday I had a phone call regarding doing an internet radio show to promote my charity work!
The Crafters with Love Fan page hit 200 fans this morning.
@crafterslove on Twitter got 500 followers this morning
and I just got 3000 followers! WOW!
People are donating money, time, their talents, their Twitter streams & avatars.. It is simply overwhelming what people are doing to help my cause. Now I look back at a previous post I made about not being able to be a nurse (Read it here) and believe that I have my answer. Things like “Nick” and the boom that Crafters with Love has gotten in less than a week doesn’t just happen. It was handed to me … and I’m going to use my gifts & my tremendous love of people to do whatever I can to make it grow.
When I reflect over the past week alone, my head just spins in amazement that the wonderful things that have happened and the lovely people I’ve became friends with as a result. Truthfully.. my body isn’t dealing with it, but I feel SO blessed in this moment in time to be given such a wonderful opportunity to touch lives.
The world can be respectable and I’m seeing it each day. How lucky I am to know so many beautiful people!
