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!!!

As mother nature preps for her deep sleep, let us all remember the importance of rest!!

Take rest; a field that has rested

gives a beautiful crop.

I am a HUGE fan of the colder months, much to many of my friend's disbelief. Besides the fact that I don't do well in the heat, I find that the cooler temperatures offer many opportunities to curl up and take a moment to pause. Similar to what much of Mother Nature does, burrowing down, underground to regroup and recharge.

So as we head into October and the next few months full of holidays, merriment and many gathering, I felt a good quote for this month's calendar is a friendly reminder of the importance of taking a rest!!

Happy October!!

As we head into September ....

September always makes me think of school - even though I haven’t gone back to school in a long while.

I was that kid that loved school. I loved!!! getting new school supplies - I mean who wouldn’t want new pens and pads of paper?!?? But besides the new supplies I did love being in the classroom - it was an adventure.

I feel like school was a bit like traveling. Though not as exciting as physically traveling, you were expanding your horizons and learning about new places and people and even different languages.

As a parent I tried to instill this idea about school into my girls (sadly, not quite successfully). I tried emphasize the learning and not grades, to help them see the adventure and not the drudgery. I feel every day offers us lessons and new perspectives. So I choose this quote from Buddha for this month, in the hopes that we will remember that we are all on a journey and to enjoy the ride.

Happy learning & peace, Virginia
