In many countries families spend a great deal of their time walking to fresh water sources for their daily water needs.
Then they have the problem of transporting this water to their homes for cooking, drinking and all the other essential things we need water for.
The amount of water that can be transported at one time is about 5 gallons.
The Hippo Roller allows people to transport a days supply for a family of 8 at one time with their simple and brilliant design. Women may make as many as 6 trips over several miles transporting water every day.

Goodness 500 Ranks Companies according to their goodness
Goodness 500, much like Forbes 500 ranks companies for us according to how much they give back to make the world a better place, and how ethically and environmentally responsibly they run their companies.
How great is that?
Companies spend millions each year trying to win over your spending, so why not put your money where your heart is, and sneak a peek at who is really doing the most good in the world you live in!

Your voice can affect molecules around yourself. Seriously.

Its fun to see more examples of Chaldni. He was a scientist who discovered that if you throw sand on a metal plate and sing to it. or vibrate music or tones through it the sand always makes remarkable patterns. Pretty cool. - Right?

Some thoughts of Anais Nin
"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage."
"The dream was always running ahead of me.
To catch up, to live for a moment in unison with it,
that was the miracle."
"There are very few human beings who receive the truth,
complete and staggering, by instant illumination.
Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale,
by successive developments, cellularly,
like a laborious mosaic."
The Laughing Heart
your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death
but you can beat death in life,
sometimes.
but you can beat death in life,
sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
God waits to delight
in you.
