Project Beginnings

Sedona, Arizona, United States
The original idea came from a woman we read about, who lost her son Ben. His mother, Jeannette MarĂ©, began fashioning bells as a therapy at first and then as a tribute. Twice a year they are hung around Tucson, with a note inviting those who find them to take them and let them serve as a reminder to spread kindness. It was kindness, after all - simple, everyday acts of human kindness - that had helped MarĂ© through the hardest days after Ben died.

You are welcome to leave comments on where your charms “found” you and what it meant to you. You can also contact us at CharmedSedona@gmail.com or at Charmed Sedona on Facebook.

To Ireland....From the Bitter End

Hi,

Whilst on holidays at the Bitter End we met and became friendly with Vince, his wife Lucille, their son Michael and extended family.

Unbeknownst to us initially Vince et al found one of your kindness Charms hanging from a Tree at the Bitter End and, having thought about it, they passed it on to my wife and I so we could bring it back to Ireland.

We are now back in Ireland, County Wexford (where the Kennedy dynasty originated in Ireland is one well-known American link) and we will hang the charm at a suitable location in Ireland from which it can pass on the message of kindness.

NOTE:- If the importance of kindness is underestimated then consider reading George Saunders 8 minute address to Syracuse graduation students last year, i.e. 2013, or view his speech on YouTube.

Kind regards to all,

Paul Sarah and Rose Ebrill
Wexford, Ireland
