“We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year’s Day.”
Edith Lovejoy Pierce (1904-1983)
As a poet and pacifist, Edith Lovejoy Pierce drew inspiration from many theologists and in particular Gandhi’s philosophy of nonviolent resistance. She published more than 350 poems and worked with Martin Luther King.
Wouldn’t you love to have met her? I love the piece above as it means we can create our own stories of opportunity, any day.
Welcome to Miss Meaningful.

Together we will discover many things meaningful. I believe that there are so many wonderful people, places and experiences out there that our journey will certainly be an exciting one.
This is a place for discussion about everything meaningful. I also understand that what’s meaningful to me may not be the same for you. That’s OK. I really look forward to hearing your stories and providing your perspective as well.
In keeping with my values, a portion of revenues received from any sales from this website will go to support charities decided by registered contributors. This is part of my meaningful message. I decided I would be effective operating a commercial business who gives back in more ways than just profits. Whilst I always try to source suitably recycled materials part of being meaningful is ensuring value for money.
Therefore I will ensure suitable charities and causes are supported to make up any lack in my own purchasing power.
There is so much that is wonderful out there and Miss Meaningful is here to guide you to special opportunities you may not find for yourself. Miss Meaningful is dedicated to seeking out the best ideas, locations and wonderful gifts for you from around the world.
Make sure you register so you can contribute – we need more voices! It’s a meaningful life. Enjoy.
