Today's creation. At the beginning of this year my friend's mum was diagnosed with breast cancer. After the recent sudden loss of her father my friend now was confronted with another challenging trial. Her mum has just finished the most intense therapy's of her treatment and is still feeling pretty rotten from it's side affects. So I decided that I would do something for them. I'm not terribly gifted and financially apt at the moment, however, I can use the gifts that I do possess to encourage those in trial and need. So I bought four double ended knitting needles, some yarn and got going on a beanie for my friends mum for winter. A few centerlink calls and a few Gilmore Girl episodes later and the beanie was done. It's not that hard to do something for others! I would encourage you to look at the gifts you do possess rather than dwell on those that you do not, and do something positive with them. Cook, sew, write, knit, crochet, clean- whatever it may be… Even the smallest thing can encourage someone who is in such a horrible situation and give them joy and hope. So what are you waiting for? Go do something for someone else for a change! even if you don't gain from it, it far more worth it than just looking out for yourself!
