I hope all is well in your world.  I find myself feeling busier than ever lately, but I'm not exactly sure why.  I am painting again, and I even set up my piano keyboard and have been tinkering a little every day.  (Ummmmm . . . maybe my sense of time is throwing off my sense of time.)  Whatever the reason, I have the feeling that time is shrinking faster than my activity time is expanding.  It's not unpleasant, just different.

If you can dream it you can do it.

September 1-7 is Week of Hope, a time to reach out to others with words of encouragement, support, and thanks.  The idea behind the week is to create a movement to pool and concentrate our positive energy towards the goal of raising our collective vibration. 

Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn't permanent. ~Jean Kerr

This is so my kind of thing, so I'm offering 40% off all cards at Heartful Village Store throughout the week.  Use promo code hope at checkout to get the savings.  (One order per customer, boxed gift sets excluded.)  And I've added six new card text options for the week's theme.  You'll find them at the end of each card's list of quotations. 

Hope can always cope. ~P.K. Thomajan
