Hi World,

I did it! I cycled over 7 miles as a participant in 'Cycle Around the Globe' Thursday, September 10th. It was a challenge created by the International Association for Suicide Prevention to collectively cycle the circumference of the globe, 40,075 km or 24,900 miles, and to have participants cycling on every continent. I represented for the United States by way of Brooklyn!-Check the 11th name down in pic below or click here.


We will break the silence, speak up and encourage our neighbors, family and friends to acquire mental health visits and let them know why we want to see them tomorrow! The hashtag #seeyoutomorrow was the campaign from To Write Love On Her Arms this year. I fell in love with this awesome, creative 'non-profit movement' a couple years ago. -They were advertising an event in NY which was listed on Citylimits.org-
(P.S. City Limits has a Citizens Toolkit and UrbaNerd section you gotta check out!)


TWLOHA is 'dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury, and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire, and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery.' - TWLOHA


The Scudder Intervention Services Foundation has a series of events beyond the five boroughs of NYC regarding suicide awareness and prevention all this month! Click on their name for more information.

I pray that you were inspired by today's post. Share it with someone that may be blessed by the resources within. Research opportunities in your area or partner with an organization to create them and be blessed!-Peace.

I faithfully danced in the height of my unpaid work, while personal circumstances challenged me. I became inspired by a word gift from above and acted on it! Hence today! -You are reading, I am writing and experiencing what I never thought or imagined. That's a quick recap of this blogs beginning. You can view the very first post from December 2009 in the archives. My passion to serve comes from my father Jesus Christ who died for the world to be free from a life of mess and continuance of it after death. Take it or leave it for what that means for you. Transformational thinking, living, and speaking will determine your fate; I pray you choose a positive threshold in your personal world. ThresholdWorld is a space to learn ideas, information and inspiration to spur your life into transformative action! I write of...

Blessed by Nature!

Today I went to my favorite spot in the world thus far. The Brooklyn Botanic Gardens has always been my best place to think, dream, and plan. I like this picture as it captures me in the moment. Soaking it all in. The beauty surrounds me. I love it! I am greatful to have such a lovely place as this garden in my community. View www.bbg.org for yourself and visit a garden in your community. If none, build it and they will come. :) Escape for a moment. Be blessed by nature!

Sparkle and Create!
