Welcome to the February issue of FemZine. I know I didn't send one out in January. I got a bit busy during the holidays and didn't get one out. I know there is no excuse for it, so I am sorry. It seems I don't have much readership, so I thought trying to change the look and feel of the zine would be good. I started to do something to that effect a few months ago and I am going to try to put more information in here instead of just links to other sites. I am going to try to make this more an informative and inspirational place. I NEED your help with this. If you have anything you want to share, PLEASE don't be afraid to submit it. I also want to be seen by more people and want to get it listed on more search engines. I have a good friend who said she is going to help me with more ideas so as we endeavour to bring you great information. She wrote a special essay for you to enjoy. You can get to it here. I hope you will continue to read the zine and pass it along to your friends. I will include the January information I had gathered as well as the February features.

Enjoy the Fem-Zine today!

This was sent to me and I thought it worth sharing. Its just something to think about.

What is our life but a dance of transient forms.
Isn't everything always changing ?

Doesn't everything we have done in the past
seem like a dream now ?

The friends we grew up with, the childhood haunts,
those views and opinions we once held with such
single-minded passion. We have left them all behind.

Where is your yesterday ?
where... ?

Okay. So you have hundreds and hundreds of photos
to show your yesterdays - how often do you look at
them ? Too busy isn't it - to get on with life...
And it not the same as the real thing right ?

Now, at this very moment, reading this email
seems vividly real to you.

Even this my friend, like all others before this,
even this will soon be forgotten memory.....
forgotten...
unless you wake up now...
to know that now is all you really ever have...
when tomorrow comes around - it is still now...

for as long as space exists
and sentient beings endure
may i too remain
to dispel the misery of the world

Here are a few pages I have put together to help you feel better about yourself. I think we all need to work on our self-esteem occasionally and thought these would be good to share:

  • 18 Ways to Nurture yourself

  • Five Freedoms we all can Experience

  • Quotes from Women to Think About

  • Don't Sweat the Small Stuff

    In January I had a partial issue ready to go and these are a few of the things you missed:

    Of course, I do have some links I feel are good places to explore.
