well my aunt used to say to me "everyday offers millions of oppurtunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations". for someone or an animal who needs help, you or i can be that oppurtunity. in the blink of an eye, through cause and condition, a persons life condition can change from hell to buddha, if only for just a moment. in a world where the forces of death are challenging the forces of life for every inch of ground, inspiring others through example is a very worthy path.

I'm so happy to read your message, Vince!
And i'm so happy that you were among the very, very lucky ones who, orphaned, were taken and merged spiritually, soulfully, wonderfully, into a loving home.
It's so gratifying to hear about our too often unsung heroes and heroines - those who put the welfare of a helpless, homeless, love-starved child before their own selfish desires to breed.

I propose that an entire holiday be established called Adopters' Day, to applaud and to celebrate the kindness of people who really practice their spirituality by adopting a needy child!

It's so wonderful to hear of adoptions taking place!
Whether by the great celebrities who choose to adopt or by ordinary people, or even just the average person who adopts from afar - sending money to help a needy child in another continent.
We need to applaud these people more!
They're heroic, kind, wonderful people who deserve salutes!
