My religion is simple; my religion is kindness.

The Dalai Lama

It was so lovely to see everyone gather for our 10 year celebration!

Some of us at the get-together had helped from the very first vision of Pyareo and still support our vision today.  As we sipped on hot mulled cider and exchanged stories of dedication and love and the struggles over the last 10 years,  it was evident the residents were also enjoying seeing so many familiar faces. This celebration gave us all time to talk and reflect with everyone about how the years have flown by.

Reminiscing is a big part of what goes on here and it is so important to take the time to listen to wonderful life stories: war survived and hardships endured; and then hear how thankful they are to end up in such a caring environment that Pyareo provides.
