Imagine a Woman
Reaches China

设想这样一个女人
Against a Wall
"The book Imagine a Woman in Love with Herself reveals pure and powerful emotions. I am healed by the gentle touch of the words. I hear laughter from inside. I let go of all heavy things. I happily find a new world in which I belong.

It is the hottest season in China now. Before going to bed each night, I read one chapter of your book. It is unbelievable, I feel calm and cool, slowly.

Just imagine what response Chinese women will have if they read this book? This thought makes me feel happy."

Bonnie from China

设想这样一个女人,
她设计自己的人生

她努力,开始为她自己而生活
她拒绝屈从
除了真正的自己和最智慧的言语

Inspiration
It never occurred to me to doubt myself.
-Katherine Hepburn

The entire universe backs me in my endeavors. Everything in the universe is united in a benevolent conspiracy for my good. -Frederick Bailes

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common then unsuccessful persons with great talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent." -Ray Kroc

A Collection of Classic Images

Two chairs, side by side, in the yard or on the porch-we've all wondered, "Who sits there? What do they talk about?" and wished, "If only we had time to just sit."

Gary Galger and Patricia Reilly have gathered over fifty of these classic images. They invite us to wonder again, while we celebrate companionship and the "side by side" moments of our own lives. Enjoy the sampling of their images in this newsletter.
