Happy Birthday to Me!

Dear Most Amazing and Beloved Family and Friends,

Hi!

So, I have been thinking…

May I be so bold to ask for something for my birthday?

You may know (or not but we’re cool), my 41^st birthday is Monday, and I would love for you to join me in celebrating our short time on this planet by making a donation to Preemptive Love Coalition!

I am thrilled at the work Preemptive Love is doing helping refugees and on the front lines in Syria. Please read more here or watch this video.

I know sometimes we adults do not like to draw attention to ourselves on our natal days. But what do you say we change that, m-k? I think now that we have lived a little longer and grown weary of toys and such, we could use our B-day leverage for something lasting and truly meaningful.

Like say instead of a gift card for a coffee or an actual card, give that $4.10 here.

Giving IS so much better than receiving and I would LOVE if you could help me give Shalom! Moth and rust can’t destroy that, baby.

 

Thank you so, so much!

xo,

Mj
