Hi Everyone..

Happy Easter, Ostara, or Spring Equinox! Spring is in the air, and the first new growth is beginning to push its way up through the still frozen earth. I don't know about you, but I am definately ready for some warm and balmy breezes!! I have been doing some research on the Amish people lately, and the more I read the more amazed I am at how spiritually attuned their communities are, not only with each other, but with the Earth itself. I hope you enjoy the resulting articles.

Here's the latest article from the Spirituality site at BellaOnline.com.

An Amish Story of Tragedy and Love
On Oct. 2nd, 2006, tragedy struck the Amish community of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Charles Robert IV, had taken the lives of five Amish Children and critically wounded five more before taking his own life. The resulting aftermath amazed the world. This is a story of true compassion and forgiveness.
