There are times in our lives when we are moved beyond measure. There are times when our hearts and souls are touched so deeply that we truly recognize our ONE-ness in the eyes (and the stories) of another. This conversation with Tessa is one of those times. To meet a woman with such courage, compassion, grace and humility is an incredible honor. Please open your hearts and listen to the story our sister Tessa shares from her corner of the planet in Zimbabwe. This is Episode 2 in a two part series. If you missed Episode 1 and you d like to listen, please click here. Show Highlights: Life in Zimbabwe, for the horses and their people Re-thinking and re-framing the idea that might is right How Tessa stays inspired to make a difference Gut, Integrity, Insight Making a difference in the moment, right where you are Why stay? Interconnectedness, our relationship w/our sisters and brothers in Zimbabwe and with all the world The Secret to Life Please enjoy the article Debra was moved to write after talking with Tessa: My Sister Bodhisattva in Zimbabwe Show Host s Notes: *Tessa (a fictitious name chosen to protect the safety of our amazing friend. This interview is dedicated to Tessa, a beautiful mare who left her body in the arms of one who loved her.) We did a bit of research following the interview and discovered that the inflation rate in Zimbabwe at the time of this posting (1-4-08) is 12,000%! And the local exchange rate: 2 million Zimbabwe Dollars = 1 US Dollar!! Unbelievable. At this time Tessa has no money of her own and has no way to change that. She is able to receive the loving support of funds to help care for her horses, her family and those around her. If you feel moved to support Tessa in this way please send an email to: debra[at]soulitude[dot]com and I’ll assist you in doing so; Tessa and her family would deeply appreciate it!
