Today was another day full of blessings and surprises. 3 months ago, I came across on a Craigslist ad of a soon to be bride looking for her dream wedding. She has been planning her wedding, however was taken to another direction. Instead of walking down the aisle 9 years ago, she devoted her time taking care of her mom - their savings, time, and commitment directed to the well being of her mom. Kerry's mom was unfortunately called by her creator, and Kerry being a strong and driven woman decided to continue her quest for the dream wedding she has always wanted, dedicating it to her mom. How did she do it... BARTER! Remember the barter system of olden times? She listed an ad for vendors to help her out in exchange of her services (i.e. painting the house, sewing clothes, remodeling and yard work... and even walking Llamas!). In return of her being a blessing to her family, her dream was answered. Vendors started getting on board with nothing in exchange of her services. It was just plain... "individuals/company believing that this world is still a great place to live in, and that helping one another still prevails.
