thank you for joining us on these journeys...

internal, external, individual, shared, in place, in movement, with friends, with family, with lovers, with strangers, with soul mates, with teachers, with guides, in body, in formlessness, through fire and heat, with rains and oceans, with breezes and storms, under the stars and the moon and the sun and the planets, with dust and dirt and mud, with flowers and butterflies, with arousing smells, in mind, in the heart, in the soul, in spirit, in this life time, in past life times, through time, in timelessness, in laughter, in tears, with screams of joy fear and pain, in silence, linear, clear, vague, zigzag, full of curves, with tons of detours, with a purpose, without a destination...

you can help HIV / AIDS orphans...

We would like to introduce you to Naz Foundation India Trust. This is an NGO project in India, which has set up a Care Home in Delhi for HIV positive orphans/children. Anjali Gopalan is the founder of the Naz Foundation and the orphanage, and she is dedicated to supporting people living with HIV and AIDS.Antigoni and myself were invited by Anjali for New Years Eve to spend some time with the kids and have lunch with them. The children living at the Naz care home (36 of them at present) range in age from 2 to 16 years, have amazing care, go to regular school, receive food, clothes, and healthcare for their illness including ARVs (specific medicine for those who already have AIDS) for those who need it. I have decided to donate US$50, which will sponsor one special meal for all the 36 children on 5th January.I am very happy to see that there are people willing to help and build places like Naz Orphanage. In fact Anjali started the orphanage by using her inheritance money to buy the house and refurbish it, after a child was left at their office one day outof nowhere. That child is still with them at the orphanage, 8 years later. Children live in the 3 storey house, completely refurbished and adjusted for there needs. On December 31st the kids got school bags, clothes and some toys as New Year's presents. At the time there were 10 kids from the HIV-positive home in Jaipur, Rajasthan visiting for some days as part of sharing and learning program. The smile and joy on their faces was unbelieveably beautifull. We took a few pictures so you can take a look at these Angels by followng link below
