Our World: 13 March 2017

"The cold was our pride, the snow was our beauty.   It fell and fell, lacing day and night together in a milky haze, making everything quieter as it fell, so that winter seemed to partake of religion in a way no other season did, hushed, solemn." 
-  Patricia Hampl

Our World: End-of-February Edition

It is with great regret that I have to tell you all that one of the co-founders of Our World, the lovely Arja, who lived in Australia, passed away a couple of weeks ago.

Her family posted her last words to us here.

She will be missed.

Even if you don't celebrate Valentine's Day, it's worth remembering that we should spread love as thick as we can and leave people happier than when they first came to us.

Our World: Lucia Edition

December 13 is Lucia here in Scandinavia. It's a time when choirs carry candles and the Lucias wear candles in their hair and they all sing like angels while the snow falls softly outside.

Lucia is about bringing the light into the darkness and spreading warmth and love. (The world needs all the light and goodness it can get.)
