Today is Day 1 of The YWAP Hope Trust - A Study In Giving and Receiving.
"Time passes much too quickly..."
That's a line from the song "Beginnings" written by Robert Lamm and performed by the group "Chicago."
TIME
Please give some time to yourself. The leaves are falling and it's a time for letting some old habits fall away. Take the time to give yourself a deeply reflective soul examination. Have you accomplished what you have set out to do? Do you feel a peace walking on your current life path? What is the purpose of your life?

| Are you helping others climb the mountains of life? |
It may seem strange that the Director of a non profit would urge you to take time for yourself. Most letters that I see from non profits are solicitations for some type of donation. Yes, our organization does depend on the compassionate giving of donations. Youth With A Purpose believes that "All Children Are Gifted." The best gifts are given by a healthy giver. If you were to give to yourself the gift of knowing how much you are loved, that love will spill over unto the children we serve. It doesn't matter if you give to YWAP. Anytime you do something that creates more opportunities for our children, you create a more compassionate world. We are all one body and when one part of the body receives, the whole body receives. We freely give love that we have freely been given. Take the time to discover the love that resides within you.

The Heart Farmer spent his life sowing seeds that helped hearts grow. He would find the ground of broken hearts and then let go of the seed into the brokenness. He couldn't control the sun and the rain, he just believed that the Son would reign in love and the hearts would grow. Take the time and discover how you can be a Heart Farmer. In the process, your heart will grow and a larger heart has a greater capacity to share love.

| Take the time to heal yourself and you can help a young person fly. There is no limit to how high a healed heart can fly. |
"Find new ways,
in as many ways,
in more excellent ways,
on all of your days,
to show love."
