Unconditioned .....is beautiful !

 I earlier posted about a need to finish building a house of a vulnerable household. When a small bamboo house was not convenient for two families: parents of  two sons and three kids, a second son and his pregnant wife. The second son started  building a bigger house three years ago but he could not  complete the new hose as his mother and his wife passed away. He even tried to commit suicide.

After we got to know the story, and  did some sites recce, consultations, discussions and coordination for funding supports from our family members, their friends and our network, we started the project.

All was very happy and emotional on the day we handed over the "Home" to the vulnerable household.  The team and the household's member came to talk to me and reflect their feeling of our working together.

Their words did touch my heart !

" Money cannot buy this experience" ....

" we do not have to be rich to help the others"...

" I am glad my help can reduce their problem"...

 " I am happy to help them unconditionally"...

 "what we can do for them is spiritually support and share our labors.

 " I am happy to see them happy"

" I do not know  how to  thank you enough for you kind help, but I will keep helping the others whose life is hard as best as I can.

The goodness of helping and supporting each other unconditionally  is very beautiful !
