[AWAI]( WEEK IN REVIEW November 14 – 18, 2022 --------------------------------------------------------------- Hi {NAME}, With Thanksgiving on Thursday, I thought I'd share a poem I like to revisit this time each year. It reminds me of our wonderful AWAI community. When Giving Is All We Have Alberto Rios One river gives its journey to the next. We give because someone gave to us. We give because nobody gave to us. We give because giving has changed us. We give because giving could have changed us. We have been better for it, We have been wounded by it — Giving has many faces: It is loud and quiet, Big, though small, diamond in wood-nails. Its story is old, the plot worn and the pages too, But we read this book, anyway, over and again: Giving is, first and every time, hand to hand, Mine to yours, yours to mine. You gave me blue and I gave you yellow. Together we are simple green. You gave me what you did not have, and I gave you what I had to give — Together, we made Something greater from the difference. With much gratitude for you, Katie P.S. Our offices will be closed on Thursday and Friday in honor of Thanksgiving. We'll be back on Monday, catching up on emails and phone calls as quickly as we can. P.P.S.
