A Little Publicity . . .
I had an
interesting opportunity come up this week that was a total
surprise. I was asked to
do an interview on our local television station about The Cupid
Project. It gave me an
opportunity to tell the story, and I hope to inspire even more people
to want to do small acts of kindness for others.
I had to condense the story quite a bit, and to
come up with soundbites suitable for television. This allowed me to focus the
idea, and to add a few new thoughts. If you were to take away anything from the
interview, I would like for it to be these thoughts:
Since I started the website, and especially
since the articles have come out in Guideposts Magazine and
All About Women, I have had women tell me that they HATE
Valentine’s Day, because it makes them feel like total losers! If you are someone who feels
this way too, I would tell to change your focus.
Don’t make it about
you! Here is a chance
to look at Valentine’s Day completely differently! Do something kind for someone
else, and you will both benefit!
Henry Ford liked to say, “Chop your own wood,
and it will warm you twice.”
I think of The Cupid Project like this. If you give someone a gift
from the heart, you both get a present!”
Thank you to everyone who has called
and emailed me with thanks and encouragement for this mission.
