If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.
- Booker T. Washington
The diaper cakes displayed in the photo are my recent donation to a local family support center.
They are also my therapy.
As with each of us, we all have moments when life becomes very focused on our issues, challenges and desires. When I find myself consumed with an inward focus - I create one (or more) of these cake donations.
They represent my way of shifting my thoughts from myself outward. They give me an outlet for the inevitable stresses in my life. They force me to look out at the world and remind myself that I can do something concrete right now that just might help someone else, small as it seems.
These 'babycakes' are always welcomed at the center. I smile when I drop them off, not because I know that they will supply the new parents with a few necessities instead because they are my symbol that I gave a present to myself - compassion.
Feel free to leave your comments. Your feedback is appreciated.
I look forward to hearing from you.
