Hello May! The international theme for May is REVIVAL. It was chosen by our Fort Worth chapter in Texas and illustrated by Mariell Guzman.
“Everything old is new again” sums up the revivals that bubble up throughout culture. But are there really no original ideas left? Does it matter? Lots of things from the past are worth saving from obscurity. It’s up to you to distill the best of the past and create a better future.
