International “It’s All Good!” Day

Today, October 22, 2008, is International “It’s All Good!” Day.

International IT’S ALL GOOD DAY is a special day in honor of my dear friends Martin and Connie Jordan’s son, Andrew, and the 1st anniversary of his passing. Andrew crossed over last year after a four-month battle with leukemia.

Even before his illness, Andrew had an amazing positive attitude and love of life. He was an inspiration and continues to be from the other side.

Andrew was diagnosed July 11, 2007 with AML Leukemia. During his nearly 4 months at All Children’s Hospital, he kept his attitude of “IT’S ALL GOOD!”, even when he got injections of chemo shot into his spine a few times a week. The hospital staff and patients regularly gathered in Andrews room noting that his energy was always calming and uplifing.

If a 16 year-old young man could keep his positive attitude while enduring excruciating pain, than so can we, for at least one day!

Andrews greatest desire was to touch, teach and inspire people all over the world. On the anniversary of his passing, we decided to do something to help Andrew keep his spirit and his legacy alive.

So, on Oct 22, 2008, in honor of Andrew, I encourage you to set the intention to consciously keep a positive mindset, no matter what. Smile at a stranger, hold the door open for someone. Be a part of the goodness that flows between us as Divine Siblings. Every chance you get, notice the Good that surrounds you! Remember that you will be joined today by many people around the world celebrating Andrew’s life and IT’S ALL GOOD DAY!

In honor of IT’S ALL GOOD DAY, I invite you to join me in a special project. I have a lovely 18- year-old friend, Sarah Parker, who has volunteered six months of her life to work with orphans in Nepal.

Sarah recently emailed her Dad and asked him if he could send warm hats, scarves and flea powder for the children. If you would like to help Sarah and her Dad keep the orphans warm, I invite you to send childrens hats, scarves, art supplies (especially pens and paper…we take for granted how lucky we are to be able to write anything whenever we want…) and anything else you’d like to share with the children to me:

Karen Curry
5321 Park Ave. South
Minneapolis, MN 55417

I will be giving Sarah’s Dad your donations to send in a package to Sarah on October 31, 2008.

If you would like to donate money instead, I can make your purchases for you:

Spread the word! IT’S ALL GOOD!

Love,
