Heartfelt thanks to Cynthia Cavalle for sponsoring a day of sanctuary in honor of her daughter, Meg Casey! Cynthia shared this really lovely message about Meg and her gift:
“Happy Birthday to my daughter, Meg! Meg is dedicated to supporting animal rights and works to promote environmental responsibility. She volunteers to collect pet food and distributes the donations to small pantries and local organizations. Meg is a high school teacher who supports her students during these stressful times by helping them to believe in themselves and to be kind to each other. At the end of each day we share the heartwarming and hilarious news from the chimps, caretakers, cows, cats and all others at CSNW!”
It’s, I think, more inspiring and uplifting than ever before to know of wonderful humans in the world and the myriad of ways one can make a difference for others. Happiest of birthdays to you, Meg, from all of us here! May it be a beautiful day of celebration ushering all the good your kind heart shares back to you. Thank you for all you do to add brightness to life.

The word hero is overused these days. But it does come to mind when I hear about everyday acts of kindness. Some of our truest hero’s are kindhearted people doing what comes naturally to them. Happy birthday to you, Meg, may you receive all the goodness you give!
Wow! Such kind words! Thank you so much!!!!
Have a wonderful birthday, Meg! Thank you, Cynthia!

I read this today and thought of this blog:
“If every single person who has liked you in your lifetime were to light up on a map, it would create the most glimmeringly beautiful network you could imagine.
Throw in the strangers you’ve been kind to, the people you’ve made laugh or inspired along the way and that bright network of YOU would be an impressive sight to behold.
You’re so much more than you think you are. You’ve done so much more than you realize. You’re trailing a bright pathway that you don’t even know about.
What a thing. What a thing indeed.”

Paulette, this is amazing! Thank you for such a thoughtftul, heartwarming reply. I think we sometimes focus on the global issues and forget how impotant and beautiful the personal connections mean to us. Take care!
