Note I really survived on nothing for food etc. and did not pay my mobile phone bill. When I am in Godagama I eat what the land provides and drink cows milk and king coconuts to make up any nutritional deficiency. In Polonnaruwa I share a morsel of the food that is prepared by the boys there along with Amila who goes with me on my weekly trip to Hingurakgoda and Ratmale in the Polonnaruwa district. Thats what is called a miracle!!!! This is my expenses and my whole enterprise income and expenditure. This account is all cash in and cash out.Its that simple.
