Heart Imaginings, Heart 27 by Mary Gow

The buzz today is the conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn which also is happening on the shortest day of the year. This morning I painted this watercolor that hardly looks like the first day of Winter. For the shortest day to feel like the first day of spring, instead. I feel the shift. Hold the vision of whatever you dream. The energies are potent like supercharged magnets.

Season of Heartful Hope

Calligraphy by Elena Caruthers

“Sing Out the Old Year,” calligraphy by Elena Caruthers

During this holiday season, gatherings on Zoom mean no need to get dressed up or feel self-conscious about that dish to prepare and bring to the potluck. From the Friends of Calligraphy’s holiday party my name was drawn for receiving a door prize. When I unpacked it, I found this beautiful card by calligrapher Elena Caruthers. From someone who loves to make cards I equally I love receiving them. Thank you Elena!

Today the first Covid-19 vaccines were administered in the United States. This is a momentous day. However, we must stay vigilant in looking out for each other and wearing masks. We will get through this!

“Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.” – Helen Keller

Heart 26 by Mary Gow

Heart 26 by Mary Gow

Heart No. 26 has a natural feeling to it. It’s within a plant. It’s growing.

“Be like a lotus. Let the beauty of your heart speak.
Be grateful to the mud, water, air and the light.”
― Amit Ray, author of “Nonviolence: The Transforming Power”

Watch Marie Forleo’s interview of Seth Godin “Show Up and Do the Work, Even If You Don’t Feel Like It” is here:

Seth Godin inspires me in this interview – to the point I decided to post today’s not so perfect Heart No. 26.

By the way, today I found out I could restore my blog to what it looked like a week ago. It worked. What a relief!

Most importantly I am showing up to stay consistent in my desire to post at least once a week after posting 25 hearts in 25 days in a row.

Keep the faith.
