It’s a SuNsHiNe DaY….♡
Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. .♡ This morning when I awoke, I thought this is a great day to spend at the beach. A summer day. Get out my new bathing suit…. and spend some fun time in the sun! After all, it is summer. ♡ In my imagination I was getting ALL ready to go, when it dawned on me. Wait, a Second….It is NOT summer…and I CAN NOT go to the beach today.! Because, I have LOTS of work to do in preparation for an “April in Paris” Tea party that I’m hosting TOMORROW for a small group of friends. OMG! I better get going! The weather here is like summer, and I was sort of planning on a Spring Tea. Gee… I wonder if my very cute, adorable, and … Continue reading

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡ Happy Monday! I hope your weekend was just perfect, even with ALL it’s imperfections. (grin)♡ I’ve been going over a few notes for a Women’s Bible Study I’m facilitating this morning. Oh my goodness, I do NOT want this Study to end.

To me, Mary Magdalene represents the Sacred Feminine, in EACH of us, AND the “essence” of the following: • Our intuitive knowledge…. • Our power and strength from within…. • Our connection to the Divine Source from within…..♡ • which BTW … Continue reading
