THE CHALLENGE:

In 2012 we challenged you to write 12 letters of Gratitude to people that influenced your life. Many of you did this and wrote amazing stories of the experience.
This year 2013 we are focusing on BEING PRESENT. This is your life. Each day is a gift. You can't turn in yesterday for more time. So make the most of each day and continue to be grateful and embrace life! Be Present! We are changing the world...ONE DAY AT A TIME!

The Best Feeling...

I am one of those people that believes things happen for a reason.  I believe that we are inspired.  I believe that inspiration comes from God, friends and family that have past on...and when we hear that little voice in our head saying do this...do that.  Call so in so...or get out of that lane...or take a different route...  I BELIEVE we should listen.  I miss my friend.  I often wish I could just have ONE more conversation with him.  I would keep him up all night talking about everything and nothing.  If you are a friend of mine you KNOW I love you...because saying I love you, even showing I love you isn't hard for me.  But I would say it to him anyway, as many times as I could.  I miss him.  He went to early.  With the ache of losing him and the hurts of my mother (4+ years ago)...I think I was trying to fill a gaping hole in my heart.  That is part of why The Butterfly Project was born.  At first I was discouraged with the number of people that would actually receive and accept the invitation to be part of something like this.  I know life is busy and some might not be "the type" to express themselves in this way.  But oh the joy that has come from hearing about the ones that are doing it...and CHANGING the world.

Today I got a little note from a dear friend that I love very much.  I have always loved her.  She has always been one of those kind and listening types.  She has given herself and her all to others.  Today the short message said she was so glad she was doing the Butterfly Project.  It made my WHOLE DAY!!!  Thank you K.M.

We can make a difference.  We have so much power to do good!  I challenge you to do it...in little ways, in big ways, any way!

Changing the world...ONE letter at a time!
