Our story tonight is called The Lilac Grower and it’s a story about a beloved flower that blooms briefly in the spring. It’s also about a clothesline strung with a new cord, a serendipitous meeting on a dirt road and a reminder of how to be a good and gentle neighbor. We give to a different charity each week. This week we are giving to worldliteracyfoundation.org They envision a world in which every one of us can read and write, in which there is free access to education for all.” Some of the ways you support us so that we can support others is to rate and review the podcast, share it with friends, buy my book or ask your library to order it, or to subscribe to our premium feeds.
