JeanJeanie 0 #1 September 14, 2001 My Dear Friends,At this time I do not know how to celebrate my life, with so many missingand dead at this time.As my friends know, I never ask for anything for my birthday, except fortheir presence(not presents). I am not much one for 'stuff'.The only way I can wake up on Saturday Morning, with the pain slightlylessoned, is knowing I may havemade a difference in the wake of this enormous tragedy.So, I am asking those who's lives I have touched, who I may have made adifference for. And who, knowingly or not, have made a HUGE difference in mylife.As a gift to me to do this.........................E-mail me and let me know the gifts you gave, please"Make My Day"!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Donate money or blood for relief efforts in New York, and Washington.orDonate Money or Time to a local organization.(suggestions follow)Raise money at your next skydiving event for something outside themicroscope of Skydiving,Make a difference in the communityHug your children for an extra 5 minutes today.

And Live the life you have always imagine, withoutletting fear get in the way......................~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Our deepest fear is NOT that we are inadequate,Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our Light, not our darkness that frightens us.Our playing small does not serve the world.There is nothing enlightened about shrinkingso that other people won't feel insecure around you.We are all meant to shine, as children do.We were born to make manifestthe glory of the Universe that is within us.It's not just in some of us, It's in ALL of us.As we let our own light shine, we give other people permissions to do thesame.As we are liberated from our own fear,our presence automatically liberates others.It's time to let your Love Light Shine~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Peace, Love, and CourageJeanie Marie SchumacherClear Channel World Wide Relief Fund www.clearchannel.comBlood and platelet donors will be needed over the next several weeks to helpreplenish the nation's supply.
