Quote of the month: Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Great as our country is in her boundless acres, majestic forests, mighty lakes and rivers, and inexhaustible sources of wealth, she has hidden treasures in the undeveloped powers of her women, that if employed would add more wealth of the state, than all of our other resources together.

Quote of the month: Shunryn Suzuki

The true purpose of zen is to see things as they are,
and to let things go as they go

-Shunryn Suzuki, "zen mind, beginner's mind"

In this season of illumination and lights, can you see things as they are and let things go as they go? Is there anything that you are holding on to that needs to be let go. Is there a circumstance that you find yourself trying to change that doesn't require analysis or change? What can you let go as it goes and improve your own situation?

Quote of the month: Wynonna Judd

Ladies, throw out your scales! Weighing yourself every day is as stupid as a man measuring his "manhood" every morning. I'm not going to do it anymore. Instead of beating myself up for the ten things I didn't do, I'm going to appreciate the two things I did do. I'm going to start celebrating myself.

-Wynonna Judd, musical artist, when asked about her plans for the new year
