Enjoyed this little story with such great significance. How blessed the little farm lady. And how fortunate the school children.
I really enjoyed the 'Balloon: ' message. What a great story. I could not stop reading it! You are talented and know how to make words come alive!

Therese, just think. You're poems are balloons travelling beyond many boundaries and to countries even far away. This makes me happy because your messages are so worth while - songs blowing in the breezes, inspiring others to write their lives in another way.

Life is like that - sometimes we need just a nudge to communicate or, as in this case, to do something that we have never done before. This is proof that we should not abandon the old ways of communicating and, also, be imaginative in our methods. We don't always need the expensive kind.
