when it occurred to me that I was doing the very thing that I can do to help. I can run.

Please consider this challenge to raise funds for Haiti. A fund for Catholic Relief Services has been created. I invite you to run too! You can join Running For Haiti as a runner, send out your own invites to your own friends and family and send your funds through the same foundation. More information will follow soon!

Conversations Too

So, I was trying to figure out what I was passionate about this week. What did I work extra hard on? What did I sing with heart and soul?

I had a couple of glasses of wine and watched a movie the other evening. At the end of the movie, I wanted to change my life. ...that always happens with a glass of wine. I watched a ton of Olympics, read a few more chapters in my book, attended a Religious Education class. Not mind blowing, but interesting.

Then a friend and I spoke about the floating island of garbage in the Pacific Ocean, which I had just described to my students at school. And my friend innocently said, "It's just too big. There's nothing we can do."

What if we all did something? What if we each did one thing? What if that? Get up!

  1. Yes! what if we all did just one thing... or two! I have been donating through partners in health, but would like to support your efforts. Would like a running partner once or twice a week. More miles = more money!
