As we enter into 2025 many of us have great trepidation. A good way to deal with trepidation or fear is to act and so that is my plan.

I am a firm believer in the power of the energy that you put into the world and so for 2025 I plan to send out into the world ~ wise words from women wonders. I know that we need to add feminine energy and I tend to do this my sharing quotes from/by women.

This idea is not new as most of my work celebrates women. I have shared women quotes on a most of these monthly calendars for the past years. But my intention is share quotes by women much more frequently.

There is much I want to say about this project, and I will share more in future posts.

I am still figuring out the logistics of the how but I know the why!!!

Use your vote for positive change ....

Next Tuesday is Election Day here in the USA. I am embarrassed that this presidential race is in any way, shape or form, a close race. I believe that this election is a contest of basic humanity vs. hatred, divisiveness, vengeance and fear mongering. It is so important that everyone goes to the polls and votes! I am terrified by hearing that many are so frustrated by the political system that they are planning not to vote!!! That decision will hurt everyone! The system might be flawed but it is the system that allows our participation in our government. However if the Republican candidate and his radical right-wing goose steppers succeed, it is safe to say that many freedoms will be lost to those who do not agree with or follow that administration.

I created this month’s collage to represent the beauty of diversity. I believe in the dignity of each individual and would like to live in a country where each citizen is represented and celebrated.

Below is a variation of this month’s collage that you can print and display. Please reach out if you wish it to say, ‘I believe’, or ‘in this house we believe’ or a variation that you wish to display.

Thank you & peace, Virginia

Happy August ~ I am happily on the road, without my computer or printer, so this month’s calendar is a bit of an experiment. I usually do a test print of the calendar to make sure of colors and sizing, however I haven’t been able to that. So I advise that when you’re printing your calendar to check the printer option to ‘fit paper’ ~ or something like that. Good luck and I’d love to know how the printing process worked. Next month I should be back with my usual technology, but for now I’m traveling light! Happy August! And let us all be more daring!!!
