Small joys for big day - December 23, 2011

Great it is Santa's generosity and, with a simple gesture, it can be shared to all who await his arrival. An appropriate opportunity for us to visit, on 23 December 2011, our friends from Periş Placement Center, who greeted us with joy and contagious enthusiasm. We wanted surprise them, but, once again, they surprised us: they sang Christmas carols for almost half an hour! Our applause, no matter how vivid, seemed insufficient.

The gifts distribution was made in an atmosphere of good discipline, though impatience and curiosity was at its peak, everything, no matter how modest, gaining impressive dimensions in the world subject to constant challenges of this children. We have to learn continuously from them about judgment, courage and living life to the fullest, despite all adversities.
