Made In West Virginia

Anais Nin: We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

The way you see your life shapes your life. How you define life determines your destiny. Your perspectives will influence how you invest your time, spend your money, use your talent, and value your relationships.

What is your view of Life? Does it include a knowledge of your heritage, your state's history,
the people, the culture?
Did you get to the Valdalia Festival this weekend, hosted by the Division of Culture and History? When did you last visit Tamarack? Are you aware of the fine furniture, clothing, glass wares etc make here in West Virginia? Support local craftsmen. Look for made in West Virginia items. hjh

That's so right! Too many of us, West Virginians, have an inferiority complex. This was good stuff to start the day. Anais Nin is a brilliant writer.
