This week I found a great website for Childs i foundation that listed ways to give – money, time and rather brilliantly they included love..

As she reached the sign off, she lowered her voice and in a rather muffled, muted tone whispered “love you too”. We do seem to have a problem with public declarations don’t we?

I wonder what the results will be? Our odd approach to private loving can sometimes inform our public approach…if we can just connect a bit more with ourselves and those closest to us, just think how we could love our donors a bit more….
