You must have a room or a...place where...you can bring forth what you are...and what you may be. Joseph Campbell
For the first time ever, and because of you, a vendor has approached 'dare to dream' about a giveaway. How thrilling for me to share my bounty with you, the bounty of a Techni-Mobili computer desk from Simply Desks.
We all need a place of our own, a space where we can dream. My place, more often than not, is at my computer and my desk. Maybe it is for you too. Or for your daughter, sister, friend.
Leave a comment -- as few as 2-3 words, a 'holder of your place' comment - and you'll be eligible to win. If you win -- and want to gift this to someone else -- you absolutely may!
I'll announce the winner (via Twitter which you can see under 'Tweet, Tweet') on Saturday, August 8.
Thank you again: how fortunate I am to dare and dream with you.
A giveaway!? Fantastic! Count me in!

Oh, dare I dream of a pink-and-white organizational haven of my very own? Please count me in! And make sure each one of my personalities has her own entry please! :)

How fun! I don't need pink, but I could pass this on to one deserving family as part of a free room makeover to encourage a dreamer.
Congrats Whitney! Your blog is really developing. You inspire me to take mine to the next level.

It's really cool that you get to give things away on your blog. I also like that you get to have different people as guests on your blog.

Really happy that this is moving along, the pace will become exponential. Good luck! I'm sure Aaron's girls will love it if I'm chosen. Or Miranda. Or Jenny's ;-) You choose.

Did Joseph Campbell ever live in Manhattan? Perhaps he speaks of the metaphoric room or space where we are protected, nourished by unconditional love and buoyed by constant encouragement.

I love the idea of a room of one's own. I think of Jo March ("Little Women") writing in her turret. My dream house will have my very own turret with lots of light (and a delightful new desk). Daring to dream...

Love love love it! I've always been a fan of having your own space and this just might give me the opportunity to accomplish it! Fingers crossed!
