Abundance

Instead of wishing for more money, I often ask for 'abundance.' When I read this quote, I realized my wish had been granted.
"Not what we have, but what we enjoy, constitutes our abundance."
J. Petit-Senn

and yes, I read it in the Mutts comix!

Join a distinct community of women who have survived the San Diego County Firestorms and now must navigate the aftermath. During this 2 hour group we will devote time to discussion, resource sharing and networking.
We will focus on taking our thoughts, feelings and concerns into the realm of art making, poetry, movement and drumming. These arts promise to ground us in the here and now even while walking through sorrow and grief, anger and fear. In this group we will begin to trust the arts to bring insight and change.

No art experience is necessary!
