Send in the Clowns....
(revisitng a few outtakes from last week and the picture of my daughter and i jumping.)
Gratitude Journal Day 20
So i met a professional clown today form New Jersey. She has been a professional clown for 13 years....and not the kind that work children's parties on the weekends. Although she does work at parties, her career is to entertain terminally ill children who just need to buy a few extra memories, a few more smiles, a few more giggles!
She is sponsored by a company that makes kids wishes come true! I feel ashamed that I have not been using my talent lately in such a manner. in the past i mentored inner city young ladies from Los Angeles on weekends through the non-profit Hands of Change.....but life takes me in many directions as the family grows and i have not had the opportunity to reach out recently. The winter is coming and my son and i will be back working at the homeless shelter on Saturday mornings....but i dont feel its enough!
So how can 'one' balance reaching out and yet still keep some energy for one's self and one's family? I always feel the need to do MORE!
So this goes out HuggaMe, lovely lady, lovely clown! I HEART your work with those children and I HEART you for making it happen! I am so grateful for having met you today!
