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!!!

“Do whatever brings you to life, then. Follow your own fascinations, obsessions, and compulsions. Trust them. Create whatever causes a revolution in your heart.”
― Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear
This month’s quote is from the wise and most wonderful Elizabeth Gilbert!! She is famous for her memoir, “Eat, Pray, Love” which is a truly inspiring read. However she has contributed so much more inspiring and passionate words about living a creative life. Her most recently contributions can be found in her Letters from Love on Substack.
This month’s quote comes from another of her books, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear. This is one of those books that I return to when I need a reminder to just CREATE!! If you haven’t read anything by her I highly recommend reading some.
Happy May, thank you & peace, Virginia
