Doing Good In The Garden April 27, 2012 – Posted by adds
My mother in law was telling me about her neighbour. Doris is 79 years old and lives by herself since her husband passed away last year.

Her husband used to be very proud of his garden and always kept it looking pristine. Unfortunately Doris isn’t well enough to be able to look after her garden so it is very overgrown.

When I heard this it really struck a chord with me and sounded like the ideal opportunity for me to help someone who needed it.

This afternoon I spent three hours sorting Doris’ garden out for her. It now looks great.

Doris is happy. I’m happy. Life is good!

Ekatva - Oneness

Ekatva – Oneness

16 youth from a slum in India, 1 renowned dance academy, and 1 inspiring NGO from the Gandhi Ashram come together to bring a message of “Ekatva” – “Oneness.” At a time when the world is more accustomed to messages of war than peace, this is, perhaps, the best antidote to our troubled times. It is a story that can open minds and hearts. These youth are touring India, the US, and the UK as ambassadors of Oneness.
