In Search of Helen Keller

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.  They must be felt within the heart." ~Helen Keller.

For months now I have been in search for that intuitive feeling of 'knowing"!  Knowing what is the right theme for my altered book project...  And it has finally come to me with a certainty that I am so enjoying... My book is going to celebrate the life of Helen Keller, but most importantly all that she stood for..Her values and philosophy; her story is one of perseverance, positivism, resilience, inner beauty, compassion, love and so much more...which I look forward to discovering  as I delve into her life.  By doing so I will be reminded of these important lessons in life and hope to live in these moments with grace and gratitude.

Helen Keller was a an American author, activist and lecturer.  She a person living without sight and hearing, who defied the odds and led a full life.  A great role model for all of us.  She campaigned for women's suffrage worker's rights and other progressive causes, such as pacifism, she was a birth control supporter and a radical socialist.  

So now the search is on for the right book...I am excited as I believe the inspiration for this comes from deep within and I am merely the vessel to bring it to life..And then five other beautifully creative souls will add to this beginning and create a wonderfully inspiring book.

I will post some of photos of the cover shortly, when I find the right book.
