I started this process a couple of years ago. &nbsp;The first theme was Gratitude. &nbsp;I made a commitment to practice gratitude everyday. For 2010 I decided to build on that theme by continuing to live with gratitude but also to Practice 365 Days of Giving. For 2011, my goal is to continue to build on both of those themes by picking out "The Best Part of Your Day". &nbsp;This will keep my team and me in a positive, grateful and giving spirit!

&nbsp;What an adventure this has been! &nbsp;I've learned that giving is extremely powerful! &nbsp;Powerful for the receiver but perhaps more powerful to me, the giver. &nbsp;Giving to those in need is one of the most rewarding aspects of the giving process. &nbsp;For me, the most valuable gift has been the gift of time with others-both people and animals. &nbsp;Time devoted to sharing stories and laughter, listening, and time spent providing comfort and concern is the most beautiful gift to both the giver and receiver. &nbsp;Ultimately, the gift of love is the single most important gift.<br></div><div><br></div><div>I have been blessed to know love and I have been blessed to share love. &nbsp;I am so grateful!</div><div><br></div><div>Happy Giving!</div><div><img
