I need a MIRACLE
Hi Neighbours,
I wrote the piece titled ‘Standing on the side of the road - Genuine Hardship’ found on the noticeboard.
LINK: www.neighbourly.co.nz...
I’m very grateful for the kind comments and for ‘Car……’ helping me out.
I explained my medical situation and that I hoped a followup proceedure would fix me. Unfortunately, I’m too complicated for a proceedure and am not expecting to live much longer, thus, I need a miracle. Since I’m not part of a church, I am hoping I can use others and the power of people’s prayers.
….….
I also need to ask for help to sort out WINZ which will help immensely with health costs. For example: The family crisis I’ve been dealing with is improving slowly as expected, but it’s costly. I ran out of gas 3 times last week attending the many appointments.
….….
On top of asking the above, I urgently need food.
I’m exhausted a lot of the time and my body crashes forcing me to sleep a lot. I am hardly able to stand on the side of the road and while I am hoping to leave shortly, a neighbour suggested I ask on our neighbourly website and give my bank account number instead.
….….
I wish I could explain things more but that’s holding me back from posting. Please, contact me if you have questions.
PS: I am more than happy to receive food (and gas) and let you know if others have helped (if that holds you back).

PPS: The silver linings include 'Sprituality' and learning to do things myself.
I can fix a washing machine and build a fence. I have attached a picture of a fence I built myself on days out of hospital. I am now helping neighbours fix their fence, hehe

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!
The gift of giving …?
The author of “The Gift of the Magi” is O. Henry, a pseudonym for William Sydney Porter.
“The Gift of the Magi” is a poignant short story about a young couple, Jim and Della, who are deeply in love but financially struggling. With Christmas approaching and limited money, each decides to sacrifice their most prized possession to buy a meaningful gift for the other. Della sells her beautiful long hair to buy a platinum chain for Jim’s watch, while Jim sells his grandfather’s watch to buy a set of combs for Della’s hair. In the end, their love and sacrifice underscore the true spirit of giving during the holiday season.
🤔
I would say the story underscores the stupidity of Xmas gifts … after all, it is not YOUR birthday, so how about donating something to good causes and otherwise enjoying being together?
