Healing Hands

Welcome to The Apple Seed! Some time filled with stories for you and your family. Since 2013 we’ve been bringing you tall tales, personal tales, fairy tales, historical tales and more. All kinds of tales, from all kinds of tellers. The healing power of love is a very important factor in many stories. Throughout life, we aim to take care of ourselves as well as those around us. Mothers and fathers take care of children, neighbors and friends help each other socially, and many professionals like doctors, social workers, law enforcement officers, teachers, and many others all provide necessary service for those around them. In this episode we will see the explanation of some beautiful acts of service for oneself as well as others. It is important to think about how we can better serve not only ourselves, but those around us as we grow older and learn more about life. Let these stories -although lighthearted and jovial- be a lesson to how we can understand and help one another even through treacherous times.
