This was so good for me today. I am stepping out this year, I've had thoughts for years and it is time for action. Just yesterday I had the old recording of who do you think you are playing in my mind. I am me and that is all I need to be to accomplish anything.
Hi Sherry,
These pieces and your writing today reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from Marianne Williamson :
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."
Puts a very different spin on our fears, doesn't it ?
I hope to really learn to have the fear, but do it anyway.
Lots of love !

A pleasant change (and an enlightening one) to see such positive “what ifs.”
I have a tendency to use the negative ones – as in, what if this or that disaster/bad thing happens?
To make the shift from the negative to the positive will take some conscious effort.
(You always get me thinking…)
I can`t remember who said -
there is nothing to fear - except fear itself ..
It`s a state of mind - and something which you have to get over to step out - which i lack sometimes - then you do try it - and think what was all the fuss you were making in your own head.
That`s an obstacle i have to get over - maybe others do too - as the thing that is holding us back from changing .
What a beautifulwrite up and gorgeous ACEOs!
I know you don't post awards but I've just received a new award which fits you SO perfectly so please stop by my blog when you have a moment even if it's just to read about it. Hugs♥
TODAY~
I faced my fear of contacting a local coffee shop and dropping off samples of my work for the owners and asked if they would be interested in having some for sale. YIKES!!!!!!!
That was so hard for me, but I did it, I made myself do it. And if they say no, I will be proud of the fact that I tried. A 1st for me with my art.
