As many know, we moved to Costa Rica.
Not long ago we moved to a lovely new place. The day after we hung pictures
.
A very Nice, well off widow approached us to say
.
Im building a two bedroom cabina on my property ( she built a lovely home about four years ago).
She does travel five months a year and is building the cabina for
.us to live in rent free, for watching the greater property while she travels, pay her yard and maintenance crew and generally keep it safe.
Rent free!!! Miracles and dreams do come true. Our karma had to have done something admirable. Have no idea what.
PS. Furnished as well!!!

(29,701 posts)Never had a brand new house in our adult lives. Our current rental is new and we thought we were lucky to get it. But this new wrinkle is .dreamy and surreal.

Congratulations on being deeply welcomed in the community.
We never know the roots of the vine that delivers the fruit (phala) of our previous life choices and actions (karmas).
Grace can be as hard to see and acknowledge as is the pain of a life of hard knocks.
The "what it is" is a miraculous menagerie of the marvels of life unfolding from us and also into us.
