6 Little Stories With Meanings

Andrea from Green Bay

One day all the villagers decided to pray for rain
On the day of the prayer all the people gathered
But only one boy came with an umbrella.
That is faith.
When you throw babies up in the air they laugh
That is trust
Every night we go to bed without any assurance of being alive the next morning
That is hope
We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future
That is confidence
We see the world suffering
But still get married and have children
That is love
On an old man’s t shirt was written a sentence
I am not 80 years old, I am sweet 16 with 64 years of experience
That is attitude
Have a happy day and live life like the above,
Remember that “Good Friends Are The Real Jewels In Life
Difficult To Find and Impossible to Replace

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
