Thank you, Hella 💗

One night, I dreamt I stood at the river's edge in a canyon gorge. Terraced along the cliffs were abundant cherry trees, their branches cascading down towards the water. This place is the embodiment of that dream. We observe Hanami here. @FredBeckhusen/Ferd Frederix has added his magic touch throughout this region, thank you Ferd! three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Zensational

A question I often get asked is, "Why are some OARS exclusive for Dreamgridders only, I thought this was a free and opensource platform with sharing?" Yes it is however, the reason some OARs are exclusive to DreamGrid users is that they contain purchased items with licenses that must be respected. Or the Creators of these OARS only offered them to Dreamgridders it is their license to share with us exclusively. By limiting the distribution of these OARs to the DreamGrid platform, we ensure that we are honoring those licensing agreements.

Roz Carr, born Rosamond Halsey Carr, was an American humanitarian and author who became widely known for her work in Rwanda. Born in 1912, she spent much of her early life as a fashion illustrator and model in New York before marrying British explorer Kenneth Carr.

In 1949, Roz Carr moved to Rwanda with her husband, where they managed a pyrethrum (a type of chrysanthemum used in insecticide) plantation. After her marriage ended, she remained in Rwanda, which became her home for the rest of her life. During the Rwandan Genocide in 1994, she witnessed the horrors of the conflict firsthand. Following the genocide, Roz Carr dedicated herself to helping orphaned children, founding the Imbabazi Orphanage on her plantation to provide care and education to children who had lost their families.

Carr authored a memoir titled Land of a Thousand Hills: My Life in Rwanda, which recounts her experiences in the country, from the time she arrived in the 1940s to the years following the genocide. Her work earned her recognition as a significant humanitarian figure, and she continued to live in Rwanda until her death in 2006 at the age of 94.

Roz Carr's legacy lives on through the orphanage and the lives of the 400 children she helped.

Fred and Deb created Virunga with Roz Carr's plantation featured here, that you can visit and leave flowers and notes in a little mailbox at the house.

The Hawpanyu, or healer, in Na'vi culture is a highly respected role due to their deep connection with nature and their essential role in maintaining the well-being of the clan. The training focuses on ecotherapy, herbal medicine, and the unique skill of energy healing known as "The Flow of Healing." I have a RP kit for the Hawpanyu (Na'vi Healer)
it consists of various items to enhance your pandoran Roleplay. If you would like a kit it is at the landing here. It would also work with other Roleplays as the kit has items and info that you might find useful.

When we log into virtual worlds, we step into realms of magic and fantasy, leaving the real world behind, even if only for a few moments. These virtual spaces offer a magical escape, free from the politics and religion of the real world. Let's keep these issues where they belong, and preserve virtual worlds as sanctuaries from everyday problems. 🦄🪄💗

I just placed the Nature's Embrace Set out, Update** I fixed it, I had to make the stone really teeny and when I uploaded it in the meshmerizer I increased the size some and it worked. In the store Foyer, at Monentes Jewelry.

I took some time out today to visit Soda's Avedon Park, and Avedon South. Once you arrive, you'll find it nearly impossible to leave, as the allure of this enchanting place leaves an indelible mark on your heart. I found a perfect spot where I chilled a bit, it just feels like home here. Nice work Soda :)

In the garden of humanity, where colors bloom so bright,
We find a world of wonders, bathed in love and light.
Each petal tells a story, each leaf a tender song,
A tapestry of beauty where every soul belongs.

No shadows of division, no whispers of disdain,
For in this sacred garden, no hearts are left in pain.
We cherish every blossom, each unique and rare,
In this dance of unity, where love is in the air.

From the mountains to the valleys, across the rolling sea,
We celebrate our differences, in joyful harmony.
Hand in hand we journey, in a bond so pure and true,
For in our shared humanity, there's room for me and you.

No place for hateful slander, no room for racist spite,
We lift each other higher, in the warmth of shared light.
We break the chains of prejudice, we shatter walls of fear,
In this circle of compassion, all voices we will hear.

With hearts unconditionally open, and spirits intertwined,
We forge a path of kindness, where no one is maligned.
For in the end, we're family, beneath the stars above,
In a world that thrives on unity, and the power of pure love.

Sometimes, making a statement doesn't require over-the-top constructions. More gold and grandiosity don't necessarily equate to greater impact. In fact, larger, huge builds often miss the mark when it comes to creating a truly inviting atmosphere. Quaint spaces, thoughtfully designed with lush gardens and personal touches, can be far more welcoming and impactful.

A well-curated garden, with its vibrant blooms and serene pathways, speaks volumes. The delicate balance of nature and human touch creates an environment that feels alive and nurturing. It's not the size or extravagance of a place that leaves a lasting impression, but the care and thought put into its design.

Such spaces offer a sense of intimacy and warmth, inviting visitors to linger and connect with their surroundings. The charm of a cozy, beautifully tended garden can evoke feelings of peace and contentment, making people feel at home. In contrast, grandiose builds, though impressive at first glance, can often feel cold and impersonal.

Moreover, smaller, more personal spaces can reflect the unique personality and values of their creators. They allow for creative expression in ways that grand builds might not, making them memorable for their originality and heart. In essence, a quaint space with lush gardens is not just a place to see, but a place to feel—a testament to the idea that sometimes, less truly is more.
