I received a communication from a Breast Cancer survivor yesterday who says she places each day in the hands of the Universe, and asks how she can be of service to other “Warriors.” Her attitude is that everything works out as it should. Can I get that?
Since this writing is a chronicle of our days in Hawaii, I figured if it wasn’t all picture postcard perfect I ought to say that, not as a whine, but as a fact. One might think that moving to Hawaii would mean Mai Tai’s on the beach and sifting sand through one’s toes. It can be that, but we are living here, and living and working on one’s house and property is not always pretty especially living primitive as we are, and worrying about our Oregon house selling, and trying to get a loan on this one. It is as Mark Twain said, “Roughing it in The Sandwich Islands”
I think of our Real Estate agent’s comment though. When I apologized that he had to go to the office on a Sunday to receive a FAX, he said,. “Don’t be silly, every day in Hawaii is a vacation.”
On every turn messengers telling me, “Everything will work out.”
I have an idea that would take an act of congress to implement, but wouldn’t it be a fitting end to our saga if it came to pass? It would be a win, win win situation.
I wonder...
The breast cancer survivor I mentioned has a non-profit organization and would love to turn our Oregon house into her headquarters. However, she does not have the money to buy it. The location of our property is secluded on 35 tranquil acres. The house is built of logs, is beautiful, with a rather Southwestern lodge flavor. It would be a perfect retreat for cancer survivors. And I just thought about it, there is a paddock with a run-in barn that once housed our two horses. The organization could include Hippo-Therapy–that is horse therapy, for horses are healing for children and adults alike.
The organization would house a Naturopath, a Homeopath, a Dietician and a CHEF. The principle is that cancer is a disease of the body, mind, and spirit and ought to be treated as such.
If our mortgage provider would buy back the house from itself and donate it to charity wouldn’t they get a tax break? What are my chances?
Maybe all those “Warriors” out there could lobby the cause.
Or perhaps there is someone in need of a tax break who would purchase a beautiful house at cost and donate it to charity.
Is there a higher purpose for our house than another dwelling? Is there a reason it has not sold before now?
Consider the possibilities...
