ROOM ON THE LEFT: Helping Haiti.

Saturday, January 30, 2010

On the right hand side of the page you will see a button that will take you to a site where there is a way to help the women, mostly, in Haiti.

If you can, please join in and help.

They need so much. Their spirits need nurishing too and doing what they love will help them heal, I am sure.

I am sending all my Embroidery floss and anything else I find. Even sending paper and crayons, for the kids, is something.

Books too.
There is an auction as well. Go over and see if there is something you might like.

Thank you.

If I had tents I would send them. If I had all that they need, I would send it. I am doing what I can and I will do more when I can.
Thank you for your comment.

here she comes...

I am standing by the seashore.

A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze

and starts for the blue ocean.

She is an object of beauty and strength,

and I stand and watch

until at last she hangs like a speck of white cloud

just where the sun and sky come down to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says, ‘There she goes!

Gone where? Gone from my sight – that is all.

She is just as large in mast and hull and spar

as she was when she left my side

and just as able to bear her load of living freight

to the places of destination.

Her diminished size is in me, not in her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says,

‘There she goes! ‘ ,

there are other eyes watching her coming,

and other voices ready to take up the glad shout :

‘Here she comes!’

Henry Van Dyke, 19th century
