- For centuries, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others. There is no greater gift than that of giving of one's time and energy to help others, without expecting anything in return.
"What you receive is just wonderful. You don't receive it in money. Just the pleasure of seeing their faces." - Peggy

Love this lady ! her humour, her zest for life, her pearls of wisdom. Oh my word what a joy she is !!!
How can someone be this cute and innocent
@Anam T - You can understand why she is LOVED by so many in her community. She is a real inspiration x
You just become...
Robert
Unfortunately some people never change , and some people are just born to be simply beautiful , inspirational and with pure , innocent hearts .
Be a new born, toddler or a elder🤣
I have begun crocheting lap blankets for the elders in our local poverty nursing homes. I cry every time I give them one because they cry every time they receive one. They know just by using that blanket in their wheelchair that they are not forgotten by those in the outside world.
Thank you for this film of such a sweet and kind-hearted woman.
@Lynnette Jennings - Thank YOU for all that you do to bring more love and kindness to those around you. We salute you 💚💚💚
What a good idea , you’re a sweet heart ❤️
What a really lovely idea!
love the old lady so much: what a lovely idea of giving and sharing, making others and oneself so happy- would love to be so cheerful when I am in her age
Nice that this story inspired you. Yes, it would be nice if one can follow her example. Much love, Justine and Michael. 💚
THESE ARE THE SOULS OF LIGHT IN THIS WORLD...PEACE LOVE AND LIGHT...THANK YOU

@SomaSensing - And we're so happy to have you as part of this community x
I love love your videos thank you so much🌈❤️🥰🌺🦋🙏🌞💪
I’m a knitter too and I love to think of the person I am knitting for, putting loving thoughts into each stitch. When I give them my gift, I tell them to think of it as a loving hug when they wear it. I’m at peace when I knit. It sustains me through bad times and helps me heal. This lovely lady is my role model as I move into my elder years. Thank you!
@Denise de Jose - BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for sharing this note that really made us smile. Keep knitting. Keep sharing. You brighten this world!
Me too, Ive knitted and crocheted since I was a child. What comfort and fun to be able to make things with yarn and needles.
Hi Denise !! I am 58 and i knit , sew and stitch for years, in France we have an adage which say “ mains occupées, mains heureuses”, i can translate by when you do some work with hands, your life is happier so yes, i feel the same as you. Sometimes i even do again and again what i did because the result doesn’t please me ……😅
how happy she is......she is in wonderment all time .....my deaply respect to my lady
OMG! What a spirit!! Yes! She'll be remembered by everyone who has watched this film.
Lovely, so glad you enjoyed her story. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
What a beautiful soul.....wonderful lady....if only there were more like her in the world
BEAUTIFUL! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! I don't have people like her in my life. I'm officially declaring her as my mentor ❤ What a lovely soul.
@Elisse Amaranthine - And you couldn't ask for a better mentor :) She brings so much joy and laughter to her community. Thanks for taking the time out to appreciate her story. And we hope that you keep tuned in, right here, for so much more come x
She's a Divine Soul.
Absolutely loved this so much. What a lovely woman.
She is a total joy 🥰 Love her wonderful knitted jackets 👌👊❤️
We are glad you enjoyed the video so much Amanda. Warm hugs, Justine and Michael. 💚
See how she smiles !
@Tom D - Another South African special :)
I absolutely loved this video!! I just showed my daughter and she said, "she's just like you." I am a knitter as well and was taught by my Gram when I was a little tiny girl and I knit everyday! I adore giving my knitting to people I meet or nurses or anyone who I feel needs these special gifts from my heart. Their smile is my gift, just like her. I'm older now and I still knit. I never leave the house without it. I agree with her, don't ever take my needles from me lol. My whole life I have created, it's who I am. My room, everywhere you look has yarn lol. My Granddaughter says my room is yarnsulated, haha. I am never ever bored either...ever lol. I love every minute I am here!!
God bless this dear woman...❤
@Sharon Keller - You and Peggy sound like long lost soul mates. Thanks for all the love and joy that you share in your community. x
Ha, yarnsulated :) I hope you’re well and still enjoying your knitting. X
Thank you! Yes, I'm still loving my knitting!! I became very ill on Christmas Eve. The second I felt better I started knitting, while still in the Hospital. I'm better now and will be age 71 this Saturday!! ❤😊
You are a marvellous old Lady.When I watched your video my eyes were fill of tears.
@Ágnes Paunochné Németh - And I can happily tell you that she is still knitting her beautiful jerseys and sharing these with the little ones in her community who really need it. She is a true inspiration!
What a lovely lady with an amazing life purpose.may you knit forever.inspired
@Chrissie Baines - We made this story about two years ago, and I can tell you that Peggy is still knitting up a storm :)
I love this woman!
THE PLEASURE OF GRATEFUL LOOKS
"If you feel lonely,
make a cup of tea.
Or knit."
Approach life with a warm heart.
Warm children with a generous spirit.
"We are all in the departure lounge,
to go up there."
Love life.
Serve others.
Be paid by the pleasure of grateful looks.
OMGosh, living like you were dying...YING/YANG.
What a beautiful kind lovely woman. She would warm your heart
Oh beautiful lady, I will definitely remember you. 💖

You will be remembered by all of us, beautiful soul! ❤😊

Who on EARTH gave this a ''thumbs down?" She's adorable! I might not agree with her philosophy about afterlives but...she's still found the secret to enjoying her life!
Absolutely Pam - and isn't it for each of us to follow our own path - and if that includes bringing a joy and smile to others in our community, how wonderful is that :) Thanks for taking the time to enjoy Peggy's story. New short film of inspiration out every single Wednesday on our page so keep tuned in for much more to come. Justine xx
@@ReflectionsofLife Thanks, Justine! My dearly-loved Aunt Helen recently died at age 105. She knew the old art of quilting...and she organized a group who made quilts for homeless people in her town (Landor, Wyoming.) I hope I've inherited her genes...and her attitude!
@Pam - that's amazing. It is through these soometimes seemingly 'small' actions that can make such a big impact on someones life. Hugs to your aunt, in her absence. And hold her wonderful memories close to your heart xx
An inspiration to man kind that's what this lady is. We all have gifts to share.
What an absolutely adorable kind soul. Much love from Australia. May you have beautiful peace and health until God calls you home 🥰

Lovely lady who is fulfilling her goal in life, wanting to continue on with helping others. Giving just to receive a smile and a simple gesture of thankfulness! What a wonderful idea! TFS :)
@Elaine Archibald - it's often those little gestures of kindness that can have such a BIG impact xx
Elaine Archibald...you say you don't have anyone like this beautiful woman in your life but please know you CAN be just like her. I would think that would make Miss Peggy and YOU very happy!

@Kelly Donoho - YES! Happy knitting x
I love her ❣ I picked up knitting pre-pandemic and made 300 infant hats and donated to local hospital pediatric units. Such joy!
What a wonderful project! They must have been so happy to receive such a wonderful gift. Warm wishes, Justine and Michael. 💚
This beautiful lady knitting the sweaters and giving them away to strangers just made me cry and cry. This is a soul with depths of humanity that is unlike society today that is eroding that very nature in many! Thank you for this magnificent story!!!
@lark6spur - Peggy is a real inspiration. But there are MANY out there, doing what they can to spread love. We recently shared this film (using snippets from Peggys film amongst others) that you might really enjoy

She will be remembered… because she’s beautiful inside and outside. What a lovely mother - grandma to have. bless her soul
💚
Being alone is a state of being. Being lonely is a state of consciousness due to inner emptiness. You can feel lonely in a room filled with people who love you but if you don't develop a relationship with yourself you're always going to need others to make you feel something.
@Kamikaze Tsunami - Well said, and very true 💚
Absolutely love this clip ❤️😁 what a beautiful soul! I will definitely always remember her story. ✝️
Thank you Suri, for seeing such value in Peggy's story - glad that it touched your heart so deeply.
We send you love. Justine and Michael 💚
I just taught myself how to knit to be productive and I pray as I knit. If anyone out there would like me to pray for you, just message me your name! I pray for this channel to stay humble with its successful need and keep making videos. I am older and in America where COVID is very bad right now. I have asthma and so must spend much time indoors in my house with my best furry friend Winston! 😉🙏💓☕ Thank you for all the inspiration Green Renaissance!
