Welcome to the Goddess Mission!
I've been dreaming of this little project for a long time now. Below is a summary of what this is all about:

*I want to write. I want to write about good people with good souls doing good things for the world and for themselves.

*I especially want to emphasize women and the empowerment and improvement of women’s and girl’s lives around the world. We all have a little Goddess in us… that female power that has the potential to change the world, once we can see it in ourselves and in the women and girls around us.

*I want to write about big accomplishments and small steps in the right direction. The people I highlight here may be as famous as Oprah or as common as the rest of us, just doing our best to improve ourselves and our families and our communities.

*I want this space to be unifying. I will draw from all kinds of people and religions and lifestyles to write these stories. Even if we don’t share the same religion or politics or ethnicity as the person/organization being featured, we can learn from them and love the goodness they bring. All are welcome here!

*I want this space to be a daily dose of good news or inspiration or comfort. I want to encourage myself and you to reach deep within. To find what’s important, and to live wisely and generously and compassionately!

*I want to encourage us to find a cause worthy of our “stuff”- our time and money and effort and prayers and good karma- to make a difference for an organization or a person who is working hard to improve the lives of women and girls. (the Empower A Goddess section will be full of good ways to connect and give once I'm able to write more about worthy causes).

So, there you have it! I'm so glad you're here! Please take a moment to look through the site. Twitter and all that fancy stuff will start working soon. A huge and special thanks goes out to my talented friend Erin, who helped my vision for this site become a reality. She is an amazing web designer- thanks Erin! Blogging will begin shortly :).

I love this! I'm looking forward to hearing more... and I have a nomination if you're taking them... I just got back from Swaziland, Africa and met Swazi women who are unbelievably poor but still finding ways to feed the orphaned children of their communities. Beautiful, strong women and are heroes in my book!
