Dear Life, A shout out to Lynn, from Durango, who helped me with my bag on fast-moving escalators in Dallas Airport. Thank you!
I am home in Santa Fe after a terrific vacation. It takes 48 hours to get my “altitude legs” coming from sea level to 7200 feet in the mountains. The drill for the next 48 hours is to drink lots of water, food shop, wash the car, and look at all the photos from the past two weeks. I will go to my campus studio and say hello to friends. Breathe and walk and appreciate it all.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 08.16.26 Family

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I look at all the photos of family and friends in CT and feel joy. There’s been many wonderful gatherings over meals, picnics, going to the beach, theater, museums, visiting studios, music, bike races and playing card games nightly. Laughter with my siblings, their spouses, my daughter, my grandkids, nieces and their husbands and their kids. My heart is full of love and gratitude. And the happiness of winning at cards tonight!
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 08.14.2026 NYC & BPT

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, Having a great time visiting with friends in NYC and CT. Jay Dee Daugherty met Arlene and I in NYC. Walked through MOMA and had dinner. Saw a Broadway play. Pure fun. Visited the renovated factory buildings in Bridgeport. Impressive studios, restaurants, and art businesses bringing the neighborhoods to life. Had lunch at the harbor with a friend, John Bygott, who I met in Santa Fe. He tried to sell me the idea to move back to CT. If only I could live in both places!

Love Letter to Life 08.12.2026 The Crew

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, Spent the day on a friend’s sailboat off the shore of CT. A mix of sun and clouds, little wind so we motored for the afternoon. Ate sandwiches, chips and chocolate chip cookies. Had fun visiting with Tracy, my daughter, Christopher, my grandson and Chuck the Captain, a friend. Good to be where I grew up and in the elements of New England.
Sun and Sea. Happy.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 08.09.2026 Sister, Daughter, Mother

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, This photo was taken yesterday of my sister Arlene, my daughter Tracy, and me. Tracy and I were separated after her birth in 1968. Then a miracle happened on 01.14.20. We reunited through Ancestry: DNA confirmed a mother-daughter match. It was the same day I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lymphoma. Due to Covid travel restrictions and my cancer treatments, we couldn’t meet in-person until 2021. Our love and family circle keeps expanding. Love heals.

Love Letter to Life 08.08.2026 Brooklyn Museum

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, Yesterday, I went to the NYC and Brooklyn Museum. Saw the Iris van Herpen Exhibit “featuring Haute Couture dresses exploring perception and sensory perception”. Amazing installations. Go see it! Today, going to Mystic CT for an Art Fair with over 200 artists. Love being with family. Having a wonder-filled time!

Love Letter to Life 08.06.2026 Home Away From Home

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, After a day of travel, I arrived in CT. Laughed with my sister and brother-in-law over dinner while telling them adventure stories: falling on the up escalator in Dallas Airport while rushing to make connection (thank you, Angel Chad, who helped me stand up and together), the Rental Car shuttle driving so far through Astoria, Queens, I thought I was getting kidnapped, and then me taking my rental car, ZIA SOUL, through the carwash at the pick-up lot because it had bird poop all over it. A worker ran over and said, “You can’t do that!” Well, I already had and the car was now clean. A necessity. Welcome Home!

Love Letter to Life 08.03.2026 Wonderful Workshop

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I am smiling as I post photos from Saturday’s wonderful Vision Mapping Workshop. We had fun and walked away with meaningful Vision Maps. I look forward to the next workshop in September. Today I am packing for summer vacation. Flying to NYC tomorrow and then driving to CT to be with family and friends.
Feeling happy, joyous, and free!
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose
