An eco Mary. Love all these colors. Is her dress made of strings of seashells? I enlarged it but can't quite tell.

There is nothing lovelier than to see beauty to bless us with made by upcycling what may have been something other in another life. Once I saw in Italy a wonderful statue made of used corks. From the distance it looked as if wood or pottery was the material but once closer, it made me smile widely: it was joy revisited as I hoped the wine brought whoever made that statue plenty of joy and laughter. As I hope knowing that you share beauty may bring to you.

"Our Lady of the Natural and Unnatural World" - created on Polyvore.com/merimagic I call her  "Our Lady of the Natural and Unnatural World." She is omnipresent, all-seeing, all-knowing. She is in the song of the birds, the preternatural stillness before the tornado, the glow on the margin of the horizon as the sun rises or sets with the turn of the earth.

Perhaps I should say "Happy Belated Birthday" because the anniversary of Susan B. Anthony's birth was yesterday. She was born February 15, 1820 in Adams, Massachusetts to Daniel and Lucy Read Anthony,  both of whom were Quakers with an activist bent. Though many girls were poorly educated in that era, Daniel Anthony was an ardent supporter of quality education for both boys and girls, so the four girls in the family were as well-educated as their brothers. As an adult, Susan Brownell Anthony dedicated her life to the woman suffrage issue. Though she died on March 13, 1906 without having secured the passage of a constitutional amendment securing voting rights for women, others carried on the quest. The 19th amendment was passed in 1920. Does it amaze you that women have had voting rights for less than 100 years in the United States? That women were considered less than too emotional to make rational decisions...
