Love Thursday Is Back!
the eyes I love the most
So many good things brewing on the web this morning.
For starters, Love Thursday is back! I can see women across the world doing the wave right from their living room couches. For those of you unfamiliar with this lovely tradition, Karen of Chookooloonks tells all here.
This time around Love Thursday will be hosted by the new, amazing collaborative photoblog Shutter Sisters. Some of my dearest online friends are behind this creative endeavor, and it is truly beautiful. The best part for me as a very new photographer is that I finally I have a place to go for both inspiration *and* some tips & hints. Bliss!
My sister turned me on to The Story of Stuff–a truly great talk about consumption & the environment. I can’t stop watching it, and would love to know what you think.
If you don’t usually read through comments, you might want to give these a second chance. You left such an amazing bunch of quotes–I’ve been going over them again and again. Music leads were fantastic, too. A big, big thank you.
Christine Mason Miller, one of those artists/kindred spirits I admire from afar, has a new endeavor in Sparkletopia, a destination site for all things soul-stirring, inspiring & creative. I truly love it.
My soulsister Elaine did a great post in response to Shaking the Shoulds. I’m still mulling over mine, working myself up to the fire (so to speak!) but if you need a how-to, Elaine totally rocked it.
And if you are looking for something good to do in the world today, why not send an encouraging word to these mamas kicking the shit out of cancer? Something small–like “I hope everything you need comes your way today” or “May kindness surprise you at just the right moment”–will go very far, I promise.
And, of course, it’s never too late to send your Love Notes to the city.

Jen, just wanted to drop a note to say I put your poster up in my cubicle at work and have had 2 compliments on it already. The woman who sits next to me was the only thorn in my side at an otherwise ideal job and delightful work setting. Within 3 days of my putting up the poster, all negativity between us evaporated. Thank you.
