Happy 2nd Anniversary!

Tomorrow will be the 2nd anniversary of the Simplified Bee Blog! It’s hard to believe two years has gone by. Writing this blog has been an incredible experience and this will mark my 387th post. I have enjoyed most the learning process, following other blogs and developing friendships with so many readers and fellow bloggers. 

I have to admit, writing on a regular basis can be a chore at times, but amazingly I have never had writer’s block. What keeps me going? You do. With your thoughtful comments, notes and messages.  

Many, many thanks to you!

Lonny Shop

Why did I only just now realize that Lonny has an Etsy shop? They sell gorgeous, artistic prints from the magazine that have me drooling... If only I hadn't already filled my home's walls with mirrors, wallpaper, and enormous paintings of my dog, I'd definitely pick up one of these goodies.

“Now, I say to you today my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: / we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”

- Martin Luther King Jr., I Have a Dream, 1963

As our nation remembers Martin Luther King tomorrow, I am thankful for his tremendous leadership, fearlessness and sacrifice.

We can continue to honor his legacy everyday by loving one another
and embracing equality world wide.
