We were inspired by the quote,"We cannot force someone to hear a message they are not ready to receive, but we must never underestimate the power of planting a seed."

Mom and I talk about the analogy of planting seeds as a symbol of new growth, new opportunities, and hope for a brighter future.

"The more I understand, the more my world expands." Louise Hay

These monthly chats with mom are a way for me to honor my mom and bring you her special wisdom while I can and to also recognize the power of women in our lives. Women supporting and inspiring other women is an important and needed part of life. Think of a woman who has been influential in your life. Take a moment to send her a message, light a candle, or pick up the phone and say hello to her today. Simple acts of kindness and recognition can make the difference in someones life, just like planting a tiny seed. You never know what an amazing and beautiful flower that little seed will grow into.
