TAKE A WORD - ORIENTAL


Marie has chosen ORIENTAL as our inspirational word for this week and that made me think of the recent Japanese earthquake and tsunami and the quiet and dignified way in which Japan is rebuilding itself.

The red circle, outline map and Japanese script (the symbol for hope) were Googled whilst the lady is a free to use from Fundraw.com.   Font is Apple LiSung.

Thank you for looking.
