April 06 Photos 4 FoodHey Family,
My friend Ron, from the Once Upon a Time on Planet Earth project,
passed this on to me so I am passing it on to you!
Stephen Lebovits has taken on a challenging project to help the hungry. I'm sure some of you need a new pic for your wall or a gift for a friend or family member perhaps??
These are his words...
Hello to all my family, friends, acquaintances and the media, In March of 2006 _Le Monde diplomatique_ published 'Planet in Peril - An Atlas of Current Threats to People and the Environment.' Among the 15 reported threats was 'losing the battle against hunger' in which it was reported that 'in 2000 there was 852 million undernourished people on Earth.' The report continued, explaining that in each of the following five years (2001 through 2005), more than 4 million more people, men, women and children, were added to that list - This is simply a shame. Now, in 2008, I have decided to embark on my own humanitarian project to try to do my part in helping some of those undernourished people get food to eat. Obviously my attempt will be only a small ripple in a vast ocean of hunger, but I am trying to do something, in my own little way, to help out. So, with that in mind I am inviting you all to take a moment out of your day to visit me. That is all, the rest is up to you. Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Stephen Lebovits Trying to do my bit. March 26 I Had To Pass These On To Ya'llHey Family!
My goodness...it's been a minute, huh? Well...I have to tell you...life is good right now. School is going great ("A" average so far), the kids are all fine, the job is okay so I really can't complain. Of course, it ain't all rosey don't get me wrong, but I am so blessed that it would be a sin to even talk about those little things that will just be a memory very soon.
I will learn from them and just keep on keepin' on.
I hope you all are well...please know that I think of all of you from time to time and hope that all is good and well in your world.
I hear from some of you on the IM and via email which is very cool.
I wanted to pass on 2 links to you that I came across today. One on 13 amazing (and not so amazing) women who don't get the props they deserve and through one of these women I found a site that will allow you to lend a helping hand (click on Products).
And if you can't, just spread the word.
That's all for now...keep those prayers goin' up for our brave men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan!!
Love,
Theresa March 01 Thinking of You...Christ has no body now on earth but ours;
Ours are the only hands with which he can do his
work,
Ours are the only feet with which he can go about
the world.
Ours are the only eyes through which his
compassion
can shine forth upon a troubled world.
Christ has no body on earth now but ours.
- Adapted from a prayer of St. Teresa of Avila
