At the Awaken Your Creative Soul Women’s Retreat Weekend (upcoming Sept 20-22, 2019), Marianne Richmond asked us to paint a circle with particular layers of meaning when it comes to our relationship with self and creativity. ⁣ ⁣ At the core we put what we held most true. I painted this. And my circle - while it had a center, did not have a perimeter, did not have an ultimate edge, or a fixed form. ⁣ ⁣ Maybe that’s because Love chose to be at the center. Or maybe it’s my experience of circles. Or my experience that love is at the center of circles. ⁣ ⁣ This is how I’ve lived our retreat gatherings. This is what I feel from watching the nurturance and far reach of all the beautiful, inspiring women who have co-created these retreat spaces. ⁣ ⁣ A circle, centered in love, radiates out and magnifies. A circle of women is love magnified, love that expands within us and far beyond us. Love that radiates. ⁣ ⁣ Happy Love Day. Every day. You are such a beautiful embodiment of Love. ♥️
