21 Days of Thinking

June 1 -21 is also known
 as the 21 Day Challenge.
  For 21 days,
you challenge yourself to do
 – or not do –
something. 
You might give up alcohol
for 21 days…
 no? 
You might give up chocolate… 
You might not wash your hair
 or not wear makeup for 21 days…
 You might stop swearing…
maybe stop posting
on blogs for 21 days…
You just have to
challenge yourself …
step out of your
comfort zone a little…
The reason: 
to empathise a little
with homeless kids…
kids who live on the streets. 
 (More than 32,400 Aussies
 will bunk down
on the streets tonight.) 


Kids aged 12-18
make up most
of that number!
 I am not sure why 21
is significant…
I’m guessing it’s “neat”.
  Start on the first of winter…
and go through until the 21st
the longest night
of the southern hemisphere.
  It’s a long, cold night…
it’s a very, very long,
 cold night for homeless kids.
This challenge is aiming
to raise awareness of
our street kids
and money raised goes to
Outreach programs. 


What’s your 21 challenge
going to be? 
Me…
I will MAKE myself
start to skip. 
 (How funny!
A skipping cow!)
