Two New Candles
authenticity
"Be who you are
and say what you feel
because those who mind don't matter
and those who matter don't mind."
~Dr. Seuss
be present, be here
"With the past, I have nothing to do;
nor with the future. I live now."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
(This one was inspired by and is dedicated to my soulsister Liz)

These are beautiful candles! I have so many of your candles now--they decorate my altar and my writing desk, and lighting one always seems to inspire me.

Couldn't say it better than Ms. Strega did above. Thanks for all you do, Carla!

Hey, sorry about yoour Zags!
LOVE your candles!!! I'm psyched to receive my next order - one is for my Al-anon soonsor, one for a sponsee, and of course, one for me. More is better, right?

Carla -
I love how you're using your current situation as creative fuel. You inspire me to do the same. I can't seem to get off carbs, and have a constant headache, and it's occured to me that something must be ready to be expressed. hm...
hugs,
Christina
