Love Letter to Life 04.28.2025 Upcoming Changes

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I am in the final three weeks of having a studio on the campus of Santa Fe Community College. By May 18th, I have to move everything on campus to home studio. Last Friday, I began the inventory process of all the work I created since January 2024. Very productive time and inspiring to be in the SFCC community. This summer, I will be on the road visiting family and friends. All changes work together to create new experiences of living. Letting go and letting life move me forward.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 04.21.2025 Survival

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I am happy to see Spring blooms survived the days of cold, snowy weather. Warm temps are forecasted. Woke early, excited about working in studio until the end-of-May and planning Summer Road Trip from Santa Fe, NM to Maine with many beautiful stops along the way, visiting family and friends. I have survived 5 years of cancer treatments and presently am in a thriving time of health. DO IT NOW is the energy wave I am riding. Headed to the Atlantic ocean.

Love Letter to Life 04.20.2025 Happy Easter

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, Woke to snow covered trees but sun shining this morning. Then a cloud descended. I am in a cloud on earth. Mystical. Beautiful. Perfect weather for Resurrection Day. I know the sun is still shining above this cloud. Isn’t this the truth each day, snow or rain, storms or upsets. Whether or not I see the light, it is there, within me and above me. Sending all my peeps love!
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Easter Morning 4.20.2025

Love Letter to Life 4.15.2025 All Lined Up

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, My blood test results were great. Normal. My body is healing and generating new, healthy cells. It is a “moment in time” to celebrate. We all can celebrate when we receive positive news. We can all support one another through every “result” whatever it may be. My faith and hope is here for you. Thank you for being in my community. I love you.

Love Letter to Life 04.14.2025 Blood Test

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I have blood tests and doctor visit this morning. We continue to track the “health” of my body on a monthly basis. What are the red and white cell counts, platelets, ANC, and overall levels of all my blood/body functions. Whenever tests are on the schedule, there’s a knot in my stomach. Most cancer patients understand this anxiety. No matter how I physically feel, there is the question about what is happening inside of me. I remember to breathe, be in the moment and release the tension.
Acceptance is the key to inner freedom.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 04.09.2025 We Are One

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I am deeply moved each time I experience the love and care we have for one another, the ability to share our pain and help lighten it as well as increase our joy. This makes life’s challenges not only bearable but valuable. We recognize ourselves in one another and appreciate our vulnerability, our humanity, and our spiritual oneness.
We are not alone. We are one.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 03.31.2025 Back to Studio

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, After a 9 nine-day break, I will go to campus studio, work and begin last 6-weeks of classes. I feel refreshed and ready. Dreamt about painting early this morning. It’s good to have a respite and then return to creative practices with a renewed eye. I’m excited to see what comes through me!
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

Love Letter to Life 03.25.2025 Remarkable

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I am grateful to be in the Santa Fe Community College community. I had the opportunity to display some of my paintings and drawings. Five years ago, worldwide, we were quarantined as the pandemic started. I was in the deep end of chemotherapy and stem cell therapy requiring all my attention and energy. Just 5 years later, look at these Energy Portraits. What a remarkable journey this is to be alive.
Yours Truly, Pamela Rose

| Pamela Markoya

Dear Life, I welcome Spring with the anticipation of warm temperatures and the earth blossoming. I enjoy organizing my life in seasonal 90 day increments, a day at a time. My intentions for Spring: Maintain my excellent health and well-being, complete this semester’s art classes, work in my campus studio, enjoy the people in my communities, and plan a summer Road Trip. Keep it Simple. Happy Spring everyone!
