Simple things

Sometimes life just gets too complicated, and the smaller, simpler things are overlooked. Going to work in China reminds me of how simple things can be so important. A simple smile. A simple touch of another's hand. A simple chair.



Many of the older special needs children in the orphanages have serious special needs. Their bodies do not cooperate when they desire to do something. They can spend most of their days just laying on the floor. Or, occasionally, if someone helps, they can sit in an adult sized wheelchair.




And then there are simple acts of kindness. People giving of their time and money to see that these children who will live their entire lives in an orphanage can sit by themselves. To see the beauty of the world.







In a simple chair that fits them.



Resulting in a simple smile that touches hearts around the world.
