Thanks for reminding me that we can all keep strong and sane by reminding us of those simple things in life that can make us so happy (I always think of that scene in <i>Amelie</i> when she digs her hand into a pile of rice (or was it beans?)<br /><br />Another cool website is this one: http://www.theoneswelove.org/home.html, reminding us of the people that make us so happy. Sometimes it's a SO, sometimes it's a friend, sometimes it's a stranger.<br /><br />I hope things will only be brighter from here. I <b>know</b> it will.

I especially love the exchange of knowledge and skills, I believe it's the best way we can help improve each others' lives. <BR/><BR/>It's such an accomplished organization now, but imagine how scary it must have been for her to start it up! She didn't speak the language, and she probably didn't have a lot of funds, and I'm willing to bet she faced all sorts of opposition to her beliefs and good intentions. And yet she persevered, and at such a young age even. I'm outrageously impressed.Shaynihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04809851139908127669noreply@blogger.com
