What's this? It's open to active bloggers only throughout the world! Click HERE for more info.
Welcome to my blog! I answer to Janet. I love to travel, especially to countries that have maintained much of their artistic and historical culture and managed to not become homogenized. As a life-long learner my curiosity about many subjects enriches my creative life. On the personal side my husband is my BFF, and my dogs, family and friends make this journey all worthwhile.
What gets me good: humor, nature, extraordinary selfless people, brilliance, honesty, creativity, art of all kinds, darkness, quotes that make you go wow, empowered and empowering people, captured every day moments, generosity, a little bit of craziness and weirdness to make things interesting
What gets me sad: selfish people, greed, environmental destruction, poverty repeated, bigotry, narrow-mindedness, manipulative behavior, dishonesty(I can see these lists growing as I think on it some more!)
Introduce yourself!
Well, I can't wait to meet you! If you're an active blogger and you comment below with your blog URL and a way to contact you, you will be entered to win the pair of my Heart Flying High earrings photographed above. (I made the fine silver heart charms in my studio and the earwires are sterling silver.) Using a random number generator the winner will be announced February 17th.

NOTE: If you're not an active blogger I STILL want YOU to visit often and introduce yourself when a post moves you, interests you, inspires you, sparks a memory... Our conversation is a connection I'm looking forward to making. Recently someone "anonymous" said they enjoyed my blog and are adding me to their favorites. Those connections are in some ways most meaningful to me.
February 17 update: The 2011 One World One Heart event has ended. Look to my February 17th Post to see who the winner is of my Heart Flying High earrings!
