the best sister in the world

Acum citeva saptamini am primit un mail interesant : Elizabeth imi cerea citeva bucatele de material pe care urma sa le includa intr-un quilt surpriza pentru sora ei , in final insarcinata dupa indelungi incercari. Bebelusul are sa vina pe lume in noiembrie...timp destul pentru ca ea, Elizabeth, sa stringa din toata lumea bucatele de material trimise cu drag pentru un bebelus ce este pe drum.
Surpriza a fost maxima cind, dupa trimiterea celor cerute, am primit un plic de multumire. In interior citeva bucatele de material, citeva rinduri de multumire si ce m-a miscat cel mai mult este aceasta veche binecuvintare indiana :
" Fie ca vinturile calde ale Raiului sa sufle usor peste casa ta.
Fie ca Marele Spirit sa-i binecuvinteze pe toti cei ce intra in ea.
Fie ca mocasinii tai sa lase urme vesele in multe zapezi,
si fie ca intotdeauna curcubeul sa te atinga pe umar. "
A fost un moment extrem de miscator pentru mine....o binecuvintare atit de simpla si de frumoasa ce mi-a umplut sufletul de soare si dragoste....
Multumesc , Elizabeth!
La rindul meu si eu va doresc , voua tuturor, ca intotdeauna un curcubeu sa va atinga pe umar!


Several weeks ago I received an interesting e-mail : Elizabeth was asking for a few scraps of fabric that she will put in a surprise quilt for her finally pregnant sister. The baby will be born somewhere in november...enough time for Elizabeth to gather from all the world those scraps sent with love for an upcomig baby.
The surprise, after I sent the requested pieces, was receiving a thank-you envelope. Pieces of fabric, a thank-you letter and most and the most touching of all was this old indian blessing :
"May the Warm Winds of Heaven blow softly upon your house.
May the great Spirit bless all who enter here.
May your Mocasssins make happy tracks in many snows,
and may the Rainbow always touch your shoulder".
Was an extremely emotional moment for me....such a simple and beautifull blessing filled my soul with sun and love...
Thank YOU, Elizabeth!

I whish you all too, that the Rainbow should always touch your shoulder !
