aqui la puerta es corazon siempre abierta
"here the door is a heart always open"
welcome
today marks the first day of december
begining twelve days of mornings with mary.
everyone is invited.
while this is not about religion, it is about sharing,
about opening hearts, rejoicing in ultimate mother love.
it is about light, beauty, inspiration, thoughtful regard.
a welcome chance to begin each new day together
in beauty and peace.
i suspect humor and charm will make strong appearances too.
it is really about showing up.
something she clearly is a champ at.
simply link in with your new mary post each day
leave a link on your blog back to
recuerda mi corazon so more may join us!
enjoy visiting each other and leave a note of
kindness along the way!
This is truly a beautiful thing to do and be a part of - thank you Rebecca!!

Good morning dear rebecca! What I love about you and your Mary posts is that they are always heart-opening. You are a purveyor of peace, compassion and greater understanding during a season when bigger, better and more expensive is always touted to be the more desireable. Thank you for being here.
Love xoxo,
Noelle

Noelle has written so eloquently how I feel as well...in this season of consuming I am looking inward to the Goddess and light in us all.

What a blessing that I visited Meri this morning and found you. Mary has been so important in our lives that I am so pleased to be doing a special celebration in her honor. I will start with this Mary I have near me every day and the prayer I say in memory of my mother each day.

Rebecca,
You have the best Virgin images of all time! I love your awesome lamp-pulls and enjoy mine every day. I'm delighted that you're hosting A Virgin a Day...but regret that I will be leaving for Palo Alto tomorrow and will not get to participate fully. I look forward to catching up with you and the other participants upon my return.

Yes I totally agree with Noelle, Mr Linky wasn't up this morning before I left, coming back to this 'home' after the brash Christmas shopping frenzy everyone seems to be engaged in is such a welcome relief to just 'be' with the real spirit of peace.

Hi Rebecca,
I shall certainly be visiting to look. I love images of Mary, there are so many beautiful ones. x

This is a lovely idea, Rebecca—and I'm happy to be able to share some of the many images of Mary that I've shot, mostly in Italy.
(Can't do 12 days of this on my blog, so I'm linking back to flickr.)

Hail Rebecca, our most gracious host! Thank you for taking time (and to everyone) from your busy life to stop and honor Mary.
December is here faster than I can think! Looking forward to seeing what everyone else has posted.
