Lidija Krupljan was not a woman who made big plans or sought attention.
Marta Jelenko believed from a young age that every person has an invisible compass that points in a certain direction.
Not every neighbour is like Mrs Kristina, whom I will introduce today in this story.
Velika Sela is a small village in Bela Krajina. It is located in the municipality of Črnomelj, on a small and sunny hill above Adlešiči.
When I found out that Anita, my long-time colleague from the Association of Artists and Photographers in Slovenske Konjice, was in a worse condition again, I felt I had to visit her.
»You have a lot of goodness in you,« I said to Tania when she started telling me about her heartfelt actions.
When I tell my friends about the 5 Core Values of Slovenia project, which is very dear to my heart, many of them are happy to participate.
In Konjice, almost everyone knows each other. And if you ask someone who Mrs Ruža Klokočovnik is, they will say, »Is she the one who always has flowers on her balcony and bakes sugar-free muffins at home?«
If we had to choose one man who embodied that old Konjice humanity, it would be Mr Slavko Klokočovnik.
