Dear Friends,
A knock at the door this morning brought a package from Stuart (Beren) containing a Vixen F6.3 Focal Reducer/Corrector and some extension tubes for my Vixen ED102S F9 refractor. Stuart had previously PM’d me offering me the set and wouldn’t accept any payment for them – a generous, kind gesture indeed.
Following in his footsteps, I will also endeavour to “Pay it forward” with any surplus gear that I may have, as it warms the heart and nourishes the soul to see such acts of generosity within our community, right here on Ice In Space.
Onya Stuart – many thanks for the gear and equally well, the inspiration your generosity has provided! I hope I haven’t embarrassed you through outing your kindness!
Cheers
Dennis
PS -
Pay It Forward is the title of a
movie, about the notion of paying a favour not back, but forward - repaying good deeds not with payback, but with new good deeds.
