When Compassion comes into your lives.. these are the things we do not forget.. they touch our hearts.

The heart chakra opening has been part of many of my stories,, from the Cooey Unicorn in Dodoland, Lovewind … the Fairy of the Wind in Magical Earth Secrets, Kindness Angel in Miracle Galaxy and Kindness Storyteller in Star Galaxy for the World. Npw One World- I Am.

I am reflecting on this as I watch events unfold around me. I have just been accepting in the 4th Coheart of the Design Science Studio ( aligned to the Buckmister Fuller philosophy) and will be working the next seven months on a new story “One World – I Am – We are” and one part of it is Peace and another Compassions and Kindness. Bucky says, “that it is everyone or no-one” and reminds people that they are each different and needed in the world”.

At this time the Peace Walk is going on with Buddhist Monks and their little dog Aloka walking over 2000 miles from Texas to Washington to promote Peace, Compassion and Kindness.

They stop in little town after little town to even larger centres as they walk the talk of Peace. Obviously so desperately needed right now in a time when some people are feeling trauma and sadness in their lives. It bring hope so see so many people who feel they are giving them life and they are share people offer food, water and smiles and thnk you to the monks. The Monks are practising and modelling what peace and compassion are for everyone to see.

It doesnt matter when acts of kindness take place they are not forgotten. I read something just yesterday about 740 Polish children in 1942 of people (their parents) who were starved or died in the holocaust. They were on a ship and no one would accept them into their country. The British Empire would not allow the ship to enter any port in India. The news came to a Mahajara of a small palace in Gujarat who , he said “the British can control our ports but they dont control our conscience. These children are docking in Navanagath. .. he said I the weak will do what you are not capable of”. Children were exhausted and some could not walk any longer. He met the at the dock and said, “You are my children now, I am your father,”. He built a house for them and gave them Polish food and songs and gardens. These children became teachers, doctors , engineers, parents and grandparents. Kindness multiplies.

In our own life this month has been difficult because my husband had knee replacement surgery which is very painful and requires care which myself as the only caregiver had a difficult time keeping up with.

In stepped many friend with encouragement but one in particular stand out. Laura Moore who lives across the hall from us. She knew I was run off my feet and didnt turn away with the Christmas business all around but stepped up to help me in any way she could. Her kindness was contributing a christmas tree she made to light up our lives, bringing extra food I need and even ginger cookies to put me in a festive mood. She helped me with many chore around the house that seemed every day but for me were overwhelming and hard like garbage, laundry etc. She even drove us to our doctor and physio appointment when we wondered how we were going to get there. She even came over and brought us turkey sandwishes for the day after Christmas. You can see why I call her the Christmas Angel. My brother Glen also was an Angel as helped us get to the surgeon in Victoria, helped Dale when he needed confidence to walk again after the operation , helped at other hard times in the tedious and difficult healing process.

Kindness is free and opens our hearts so happiness can enter. Whether it is being given to us or we are able to give it. Thanks you to so many. We send our love.

Take time to share your kindness and yes it will bring more Peace in the World.

Peace is this not what we wish for ourselves and the children!

Happy New Year
