What A Gift Can Do

My husband and I are BIG fans of Playing For Change, so when they came out with a DVD/CD, we got 3. One for ourselves, one for my in laws and one for Aunt Beth.


Beth is a teacher in St. Louis and after receiving and watching her DVD/CD gift. She took it to her high school class and shared it with them. The kids were inspired and they shared with their friends. Soon, the other teachers came and borrowed it and shared it with their classes.


All the teachers and students were inspired. Little did we know that a B-day gift would flourish and grow and reach out to so many. It inspired our hearts :)

Beth, thanks. My husband's Aunt Beth is a wonderful person and I expect her students to do wonderful things or at least I hope they will :)

What a nice story of sharing and how much it can mean.

Darlene, thanks. It surprised us that a tiny seed of sharing bloomed into a beautiful rose of inspiration for others. I love the ripple effect when it comes out good :)

Take care and many blessings be upon you and those you love--you have been through so much, yet you remain lovely. How is that possible? You are a miracle.
