~~~in our hearts~~~

as fun as valentine's day can be, we do know there's a flip side.
sometimes the holiday just marks how lonely we are.
which totally sucks.
we encourage everyone to concentrate on all the different
kinda loves in their lives on that day. and if you STILL feel
lonely, we'd like to be part of your valentine's day!
we're asking everyone here in the bone sigh community to
hold people feelin' lonely in our hearts this month!
lonely is a tough feeling to have. and if you know we're
holdin' you close somewhere out here, maybe that can help!

AND if you let us know, we can make sure you get a
valentine e-card from us that day!
we'd love to help remind you that you aren't alone and
that you indeed do matter on this day of love!
sometimes you just gotta ask for what you need!
drop terri a note and let her know you'd like to be remembered!
she will reply to your note letting you know she got it.
so if you don't hear back, something went wrong.
and then on valentine's day, she'll send you an e-card!
okay, so maybe it's not much...
but it's a start.
and it's offered in love.
isn't that what it's all about?

~~~you guys!~~~

*akasa is a woman who's come thru my mailbox and inspired
me more than once now! she has a blog we'd like to share with
you! please
head on over
and say hello!

* janice is a beautiful lady who came thru with some donation ideas.
i told her that sometimes i just don't know about posting that kinda
thing as we all get a lot of it. she was so completely understanding
and suggested the site, cleanbreath.org.

it's one of those places you can go click to donate, and it has
a lot to choose from. that seemed like a good idea! so we thought
we'd share that here! thank you, janice, for your beautiful heart!

*don't forget our wonderfuls this month! we've even got a wonderful
shop of the month this month!! all the way from minnesota!
be sure to check out cottage goods!

*and then pamela (ms. pam)! she's our wonderful artist!
she's a writer, and my gosh, i think she should just travel the
world and tell her stories and speak her wisdom. she has much to share!

*and then there's angela....our wonderful person of the month.
a special lady, giving so from her heart...anyone who's lost a child
will not want to miss finding out more about angela. she's
quite a woman. so come on by and check out the wonderfuls!

 

 

they were wrong -
she was okay just the way she was.


it is your tears that run down your face, and yet, i taste their salt. it is your hand that wipes your cheek, and yet, i feel the softness of your skin.when you turn to face your world, you never leave me. i am with you.

new prints
and
greeting cards!

it was a gift they could never love her entirely - for then she was forced to do it herself.


she had many moods...

thanks for loving me thru them.


sometimes she forgot how special she was. and so i'd remind her...

you're beautiful, you're special, and you matter.

 


i don't understand it,
i have very few theories,
and absolutely no answers.
but something i know is this...

your presence in my life matters. you have made a difference to me.
thank you for that.


turning her twinkling eyes towards me, she grinned.
i'm embracing my life! she said.
rejoicing in it!
and it just wouldn't be the same at all without you! ....

just so you know...you mater.

~~~some announcements!~~~

* a few women have asked about inner child work...
so i thought i'd try to explain what i do and how it works
for me. the guys helped me get a recording up, and we've
got it on our homepage! it's the kinda thing you want to curl in
with. i started to do it in four little segments so as not to overwhelm
people, but it seemed way better to connect them all. so we did!
think it's around 20 minutes long. if you're curious
and thinking you might like to try something, give it a listen!
(don't forget to have the tea while you curl in!)

* noah has redone our book website! head on over and check it out!
thank you, noah, for all you do for us!! you keep bone sighs bright!

*we just found out that 100% recycled paper is available for our
greeting cards! we will be turning them all over to that kinda paper as
we go along here. it'll just take some time. but we're gonna do it! and we're
all excited about that! we already have several images already turned over,
including all our newest cards!
