Re: Caring people
Yes. There are still good people around.

Where we live now (Canary Islands) there is always a smile and a helping hand. Loads of patience and compassion and solidarity.

THX for sharing!
Have a fine day!

Re: Caring people
Gordie,

Thanks for posting it. The unseen connection between humans works again, to people's benefits.

All the very best,

Ann
