I have a dream that one day every colour shall be changed, every blue should be added yellow and every yellow should be added blue, there will be no other colours but holy a green!
I have a dream our children will one day live in a society where they will not be judged by their Hukou but by the content of their character.
Audra,
What a beautiful gift by you and your husband.
May your Christmas be one that is filled with many moments of love, happiness, and joy!
And – may our world continue to move more deeply into a real sense of peace…peace that starts within and spreads out in loving actions and care for others.
Merry Christmas!!

Audra,
You’ve picked a worthwhile organization to bring attention to – Heifer International is fabulous! My mom introduced us to their work years ago with what I refer to as a “gift of giving”.
My wish is that in this new year, 2011, people feel peace inside and connect with others in meaning ways that make a difference for all.
Sending you hugs for the holidays,
Pam
