Story a welcome respite from the grim headlines

Amid the negative news stories that normally fill our newspaper, it was a breath of fresh air to read about the Headingtons’ trip to Greece as volunteers with Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms (“Two faces of Crete: Poetry writer and poet doer,” Life, Sept. 28).

The story was a cool oasis amid battling politicians, weather emergencies and financial downturns.

Thank you for recognizing the merit of a well-written account of folks who are doing something positive and creative. Their spirit is as beautiful as the countries they are visiting. I look forward with anticipation to reading more about their adventures.
