Meeting Cami Walker (JAH)

Thursday, March 11, 2010

This evening I had the pleasure of meeting and having dinner with Cami Walker (author of 29 Gifts). What an amazing woman! What an amazing story! The courage it took for her to open up her life for all to see is incredible, especially for such an unassuming person. She told our Chapter President that her trip to Louisville was the best trip she has ever had. I suspect it is because the people here are so down to earth and real. Just like she is. She clearly did not write her book to gain fame and fortune. In fact, the publicity seems to be a bit overwhelming to her. Rather, she did it to share with others how the simple prescription of "29 Gifts in 29 Days" changed her life and how it could change the lives of so many people all over the world. In an age when so many people are concerned only about themselves, Cami shared personal details of her life with strangers in an effort to help others and make this world a better place for all. How remarkable is that?!?! Meeting and getting to know her was so inspirational. I am so energized. I can't wait to start my 29 Day Giving Challenge tomorrow.
