"The lesson [Henry David Thoreau] had taught himself, and which he tried to teach others, was summed up in the one word 'Simplify.' That meant simplify the outward circumstances of your life, simplify your needs and your ambitions; learn to delight in the simple pleasures which the world of Nature affords. It meant also, scorn public opinion, refuse to accept the common definitions of success, refuse to be moved by the judgment of others. And unlike most who advocate such attitudes, he put them into practice." (Walden and Other Writings by Henry David Thoreau--Edited and with an Introduction by Joseph Wood Krutch, Bantam Books, 1962, P. 1)

Humanitarian Doll

Here is a photo of the Humanitarian Doll I made over the weekend. The pattern for these simple little dolls is most ingenious. You can see it for yourself here. And the address for one place where a person can contribute humanitarian aid items can be found here. On that page you will also find a link to patterns and instructions for many other things to make and share.
