When we passed by the village of Nuevo Peru on the Yaguasyacu River last week, I saw a couple of kids swimming. I most enjoyed seeing one girl run and jump into the water from the bank.
When Elle came into our booth, she immediately spotted our yellow Papilio butterfly ornament. I asked her about her attraction to this craft and learned an emotional backstory which she generously consented to let me share.
I felt joy and some pride that I played a role in allowing the Alternatives to Violence Project to work its magic for energizing our internal light that attracts people to each other.
