Thankful Thursday has snuck up on us again!!!! Have you thought about what you are thankful for?
Today my heart is full with overwhelming love as I am thankful for… your generosity!!!
I am always thankful for the support of my amazing community but as we move closer to Brisbane’s Melanoma March and as Team Naked Gardiners’ pull together to raise funds for Melanoma Institute Australia, I can honestly say that I feel an overwhelming wave of thanks for all the donations being received! When a patient faces the lows that come hand-in-hand with melanoma it is truly a battle to look towards the positives. The Naked Gardiner for me has always been an exploration in my journey of the loves in my life and appreciating moments of positivity and gratitude. Many people tell me I’ve always been a positive person but it is a known fact that human nature tends to lean towards the negatives before we work towards the positives. And believe me when I tell you that leaning towards the positives can sometimes involve ugly girl tantrums and periods of self-doubt. However when I pull myself out of those moments or rather my two favourite boys have their hand (or paw) in the process, I am always pleasantly overjoyed with the elation of the path of positivity! That’s why when I see my community rally together and join Team Naked Gardiners’ I can’t hold back in thanking each and every one of you with words of love because of your generosity!
Each person within our melanoma community whether it be patients, carers, family, friends or researchers are grateful for your support, just as much as I am. When we pull together as a community we create a ripple effect of love and support across the world!
Biggest of sloppy puppy kisses from my Team Naked Gardiners’ Captain Winston and less sloppy modest thank you’s from Ant and I – we are grateful for your love and YOUR generosity!!!!
