Pillows
Why Pillows?"Why pillows? Aren't these pillows just a big puzzle to people?
Could they seem like just a token with little impact or meaning to
many of these terribly poor families?"
No. We have found that after giving pillows to several thousand
children in Central America and Peru that magic pillows are received
as long lasting, very personal gifts from the SOFTLY team. They
convey our loving hope for comfort, safety, and assurance. And they
are SOFT - like all children with their "blankie" - watch how these
little ones hug their new pillows close to their smiling faces.
And what about the decorated pillowcases? Why are they called Magic
Dream pillowcases? What is their importance?
When children capture dreams for themselves or other children using
their own artistic expression they create magic. The pictures and
designs, along with the prayers and affirmations are the last thing
they see as they go to bed and the first images as they wake up. We
often say: "What is held in mind will be created in kind." Or to
quote the music from South Pacific - "If you don't have a dream; how
ya gonna have a dream come true?"
The pillows are not meant to be end but a beginning - the beginning
of a process of working together for general improvement in the life
of a child. How can we move forward with what we need and want
without being able to visualize it, affirm it, to pray for it?
