 Editor’s note: Happy spring everyone! Just this morning, a very sweet young teenager left us a note saying how inspired she is by our community and how much "she really wanted to do things for others." Her note was a beautiful reminder of the importance of engaging young people in the power of small acts of kindness. Try reaching out to a young person in your community this week! |

The Woman Who Saved 200 Sloths
“Monique Pool first fell in love with sloths when she took in an orphan from a rescue centre. Since then many sloths have spent time in her home on their way back to the forest — but even she found it hard to cope when she had to rescue 200 at once. It all began in 2005 when Pool lost her dog, and called the Suriname Animal Protection Society to see if they’d found it. They hadn’t, but they told her about a baby three-toed sloth they didn’t know how to look after.

Be The Change
This week try living by the Tao of Sloth shared in the article. Practice gentleness with all life around you. |
