"I gave ten dollars to the Red Cross today..So many need help in some way."
prayers
I'll have to count, which day of the challenge I am in. But I know that I conciously started a new trial when I came to Israel (still wow, I am in Israel), and I am noting the gifts every day (or at least regulary :) ) in my notebook.
Today I met the most wonderful person in hospital. And old man - 91, looking much younger - who imigrated to Israel in the early years of his adulthood. From Germany. He was so welcoming, and didn't mind to speak German with me, in spite of history and everything. We talked for a while.
Leaving hospital, I went to the Baha'i-Gardens, close to the shrine of the Báb, and sat down, saying the short healing prayer, nine times, for him. And felt so thankful for having met him. It's such a great thing, to really talk to someone, when you are abroad. Feels like home.

Sending healing vibes is known (even if someone doesn't know it's being done for them) have been proven to help in one's recovery. Good for you to wish a relative stranger health.
