I had a solo exhibition in a museum and I started an Art School about three and a half years ago.\u00a0 I wouldn\u2019t have had the confidence to do that before.\u00a0 I also took up sculpture at 60 years of age and have completed three pieces successfully.\u00a0 I had no idea I could sculpt.\u00a0 The number of changes, gifts and benefits from your support would fill pages.\u00a0 I was very excited that you had decided to establish a political party and try to bring integrity, honesty and wisdom to the people on a larger scale. We all know that the system has to change and The Twelve Visions Party has an extraordinary vision that will improve the quality of life for all to embrace.\u00a0 Thank you from the bottom of my heart! \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kathi<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Mark, I\u2019m delighted to have this opportunity to let you know what your literature has meant to me over the years.\u00a0 About five years ago when you first contacted me by letter I didn\u2019t know what your organization was about, but for the small amount of money you were requesting for publishing costs, the &#8230; <a title=\"The artist in me was awakened by your literature\u2026\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/?p=19359\" aria-label=\"Read more about The artist in me was awakened by your literature\u2026\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-longtestimonials","no-featured-image-padding"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19359","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19359"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19359\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36946,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19359\/revisions\/36946"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.neothinksociety.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
