Hi Wilma
Just wanted to say thank you for your wonderful contribution to us all – your blog. It makes me smile and makes my heart warm everytime I read it. Here I am in Australia, which I am making my new home, but a long way from my darling, who is back in NZ studying, and old friends and family…your words ring true, we can be a contribution wherever we are, and learn to ask for help and support. Lots of love to you and John, miss you both, you have always been wonderful generous friends and always will be…come stay in Rocky with us when you are homeless, we’ve got spare beds!!!! Take care, Jackie XXX

Oh Ylia, how true and it is a great way to see when you live in a prosperous community where people are interacting with each other generously, we will get fed and be safe and cared for.
Lovely story and very much to the point.
Thank you for that.

Hi Wilma,
just had this email forwarded to me and thought how brilliantly it illustrates your point! Ylia

A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, ‘Lord, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.’

The Lord led the holy man to two doors.

He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man’s mouth water.

The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths.

The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.

The Lord said, ‘You have seen Hell.’

They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man’s mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, ‘I don’t understand.’

It is simple,’ said the Lord. ‘It requires but one skill. You see they have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.’

@Mary. How wonderful the world works and connect us as human beings. I love to hear about it as the more confirmation I hear, the easier it is to believe, just as you say at least we becoming aware.
So thank you for sharing the miraculous.
Yes, the painting is going all right, when will it stop? However I like doing it and the result is fabulous and it is all for the sake of what and a result of reading your Ringing Cedar books, Mary.
Love Wilma
