July 01, 2003
Happy July, everyone, and a happy holiday week! To our Canadian friends, I send along joyous wishes for a happy Canada Day, today. And I send dazzling July 4 firework wishes for those on this list who live here in the States.
May these holidays bring moments of relaxation, fun, and meaning to you all. And may the dawn of a new month offer a perfect punctuation to the past, with a gentle, graceful opening for what is to come.
This week's Articulation, Grand Entrance, is my welcome to the new month. To view Grand Entrace, click here!

"I don't know how to adequately express what this Goalar Energy course has done for me. I feel like our new business venture is so crystallized, that it'll move ahead on its own accord at this point."
Way to go, Catherine! And thank you for your words! :-)

Artful Links!
1. Found Magazine is a quirky site that features "found" stuff - letters, homework assignments, strange lists, drafts of speeches, agendas, etc. It's quite fascinating. Take a look and enjoy!
2. I could have sworn that I already recommended
Storypeople.com
as an Artful Link, but I couldn't find it anywhere in the archives. So, even if I DID already tell you about this site, it most definitely warrants another appearance. If you have never seen Brian Andreas' work, you will be utterly enchanted by this unique artist and the way he combines words and art. Do your imagination a favor and visit his site soon!
Click here for archives of past Artful Links.
Do YOU know of an Artful Link? Let me know! I'm always looking for new links to share in this newsletter.
Sending you prayerful flowers to line your path.
