Cima needs the Support of People Like YOU!


I recently had the opportunity to spend two weeks at Cima. This is an amazing place that helps street kids. We were provided to be able to get to know these boys and the organizers. I will be going back as soon as possible to help out with anything that I can do. I truly loved getting to know the boys and their life stories; they have a permanent place in my heart. I will be back in Cima soon.
Humbly,
Marcia

“Cima is a non-profit organization that provides assistance to boys who live on the streets or find themselves in high-risk situations. CIMA welcomes boys that suffer, have lost hope and have been rejected by their own families. Boys from nine to sixteen years of age are accommodated with the goal of reinstating them in their homes and in society. CIMA tries their best to provide the boys with a home where they can satisfy their basic needs of affection, housing, food, health and education. Projecting values such as teamwork, discipline, commitment and respect is an integral part of life at the CIMA home.

The home is located in Cieneguilla, about 21km from Lima's center. Six dormitory buildings can each house up to 16 boys. On the 12,000sqm areal there are areas for administrative use, classrooms, trade shops, a library, a music hall, a bio-farm, a sports court, a gym, a chapel, gardens, a small animal nursery and other recreational facilities.

Recientemente tuve la oportunidad de pasar dos semanas en Cima. Este es un lugar increíble que ayuda a niños de la calle. Nos dieron para poder conocer a estos chicos y los organizadores. Me voy a volver tan pronto como sea posible para ayudar con cualquier cosa que yo pueda hacer. Realmente me encantó conocer a los chicos y sus historias de vida, tienen un lugar permanente en el corazón. Voy a estar de vuelta en Cima pronto. Humildemente, Marcia

Making a Difference Everyday



I am M.A.D.E. …by Marcia Johnson



A great friend of mine(Carl Van Haght ~ http://www.tagnflag.org/ ) introduced me to the saying, “I am M.A.D.E.” *****M.A.D.E. = Making a Difference Every Day … he says that if we Surrender to making a difference, we open ourselves up to all possibility.

“When we surrender, we allow the universe to work its magic; we say yes to infinite possibilities; we trust that things will work out as they are meant to; and we give ourselves permission to let go of the outcome. The act of surrendering can be liberating, intimidating, blissful, scary, and a swirl of so many other emotions. But in the end, we accept that life will work its magic if our words, thoughts, and actions have integrity and are impeccable." ~ davidji

A couple of years ago, I was so honor to come across http://www.dailyom.com/ a website that sends out inspiring messages daily for a happy, healthy and fulfilling day. So when I joined facebook, I started a group for the Daily OM as my way of ‘paying it forward.’ So every week day I send out a message from the daily OM to our facebook group. I write some of the Special Om’s that I send out, but the majority of them come directly from the Daily OM website.

My simple act of making a difference has encouraged wonderful things. By me hitting SEND every weekday, our group members have been inspired to do everything from smiling, change the way they view themselves and others, choose to be positive, meditate, reach out to a friend, ask someone out on a date, got along with a negative person at work, get married, bought a coffee for a stranger and even cut off their hair to donate it to children with cancer! I can do this simple act of making a difference, in my PJ’s…it is easy and cost’s me nothing…I LOVE to write, I LOVE to SHARE, I LOVE Making A Difference…I tell you this not so that I get a pat on the back….but to inspire you to do something…Make a Difference Everyday…even the simplest of actions ripple out into the world in such a way that you may never know how big of a difference that you have made… Every choice you make, every action YOU take, Everything that you do MATTERs.

Your ACTIONS don’t have to cost you anything more than the thought of knowing that you are M.A.D.E….
Here are just some simple ideas that you can choose.
