old story

The lady, natural healer, never advertised or invited anyone, but people would find her for some reason. She was helping people, someone told me, for more than 80 years, since she was a girl. She was very beautiful woman, even when she was old, something special in her, mix of kindeness, love for people, beauty, her unique healing skills. I used to look in a few old family albums in the village and all the women, when they were young, were very good looking. Many of them went to the war, worked on the Soviet collective farm basically for free, they didn't have passports and were not allowed to move from the village. Only my mother's generation were allowed to move from the farm and village.
Still, those old women had something in them. You know they would do everything they can for you. They knew so much, even from hundred years ago.
Only one had TV and everyone would go to her house, and they had grand or great grand kids, they would watch only children programs.
They would cook, stare at you eating, asking what else you want. If someone had a baby, then the baby would go hands to hands, covered in hugs and kisses...
