The seed has been planted

Me ~ so happy ~ with the amazing warm hearted founder of

squam

, Elizabeth

The magic of

squam

has been

infused

into a whole new group of budding artist. They gathered around that fabulous

lake

and embraced one another as the previous group had done.

Their

stories

and

pictures

of their time spent at

squam

brings back all the amazing feelings I felt when I was there last

September

. Just reading their

words

and

thoughts

has watered that little seed that was planted into my heart when I was exploring those fabulous woods for myself.

It was at

squam

when I truly felt like people saw "

me

" for the very first time. There were no judgements only acceptance. The loved swirled around and swept me off my feet. I grew my

wings

and since then have been learning how to fly. I dip my hands into

paint

more often and

snap

more photos.

Unfortunately

this year I will not get the chance to be engulfed in the

magic

. But if you even have an inkling of wanting to feel the warmth and love that I did I highly

recommend

you take the leap and attend

squam

in

September

. There are no words that can describe how you feel and what it will do for your heart and soul. Spread those wings and fly!
