start where you are ....


Start by doing what's necessary; 
then do what's possible; 
and suddenly you are doing 
the impossible.

Francis of Assisi


When facing a project or a problem that seems overwhelming, it is always good to remember to just start doing it. Start small if you need to but start. The more you put something off the larger and more daunting it becomes and the more excuses you find not to do it! So just start where you are and go from there.

may this dress bring PEACE!!!


Make me an instrument of your peace. 

Where there is hatred . . . let me sow love. 
Where there is injury . . . pardon. 
Where there is doubt . . . faith. 
Where there is despair . . . hope. 
Where there is darkness . . . light. 
Where there is sadness . . . joy. 
Saint Francis of Assisi (c. 1181 - 1226)


Today there is going to be a 
Global Collective Prayer Initiative, 
hosted by two inspirational writers and activists,

When I first saw this event announced I was intrigued. 
Once I read about it, I was committed.
The idea of having a group of people, from all over the world 
(thanks to the internet),
praying for, asking for, thinking about
PEACE ~
it could be profound!!

as the famous Margaret Mead 
quote reminds us:

Never doubt that a 
small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens 
can change the world;
indeed, it's the only thing 
that ever has.


I hope you can join us ~ 


PEACE
