Blogging has turned into an important part of our lives. We all have different motifs and necessities to keep doing it... During that journey we make discoveries - about the world, about the others, about ourselves. When we share, we trust each other and it's so thrilling to feel a support and understanding from someone, you have never seen, but the mutual contact with whom brings you joy and makes you feel good!
I am sure you'll agree with me that one of the most beautiful sides of blogging is finding new friends. I haven't expected that, but today I am happy to say that I met several special persons, who became very dear to my heart! One of them is Gretel Parker.
Unfortuntely, right now, Gretel is passing through a very sad and hard period of her life....
Something that could happen to everyone of us and those who have had such an experience know how much it hurts and how many sweet cares one needs to recover...
Gretel has a lot of friends who, as you see, try to ease her pain. (Thank you, Jessie and Charlotte!)
I dare to hope that some of you can help her, too!...
THANK YOU!!!
Beautiful words, Rossichka. Gretel helped me in my early days as an artist. She's a wonderful and caring person and I'll join you in your best wishes.xxx

Your words say it all, thanks for sharing about our talented friend.......

Thank you, Claire! I'm also amazed at how people from different corners of the world connect in such a moment - emotionally before all! I think of Gretel every day, as I'm sure you do, too! And "jump" from time to time to see how much money is being raised... And then I fill up with hope!:)
