It would be very good if we could wake up before we die.
-Hindu saying, submitted by Jennifer G., San Antonio, TX

Without change, something sleeps inside us,
and seldom awakens. The sleeper must awaken.
-Frank Herbert, submitted by Tim A.

Finally, never give up on yourself.
Then you will never give up on others.
Wholeheartedly do what it takes
to awaken your clear-seeing intelligence,
but one day at a time.
If we live that way,
we will benefit the earth.
- Pema Chodron, submitted by Sharon K.

So, are you awake yet? If not, let me say it a little louder: WAKE UP!!

I hope it is obvious that The Ripples Project continues to grow primarily
because of the many people who contribute quotes as well as those
who purchase goodies from our online store. Last week we raised
another $300 so we are one third of the way to raising the $12,000
we need for our new site that will launch this fall.

If you have previously made a purchase, THANK YOU! If you haven't,
could you consider buying one tiny goodie that will create a HUGE
ripple? We only need $1 from each member to make this work!!!

Ooh, and if you're curious to see our progress, take a peek at our
website mock-ups and provide feedback if you're so inclined!
