Fascinating Saturday in the village (a senyru)
Urban kids saw fowls
Fascinating excitement!

Motherly Monday
The baby clings to dear life

The water I touch…
The water I touched

No turning the clock!

"A real friend is one who walks in..."
"A real friend is one who walks in

A snake joined in a meditation session

In the silent hall a snake coiled in the center in meditation! Horrified one saw ‘Don’t move, don’t move, least it ’ all still, not breathing! Basket over it a wooden plank under it outside hall, released! ****
“Snakes are sometimes perceived as evil, but they are also perceived as medicine. If you look at an ambulance, there’s the two snakes on the side of the ambulance.
