| Birthday card from a one of my best friends! |
Forgiving others....is one thing. Forgiving myself is a whole different can of worms that I rather bury in the back yard than open. When and how did I get so off track. Why is it easier to beat myself up; then to love myself. The same goes with other people. It seems much easier to gossip about a person than to see them for their gifts. I have heard that the world is a mirror. What we dislike in others is actually what we dislike in ourselves.

| More lovely cards and special messages of kindness |
Aaaaahhhh! I am deep into this work on myself and it is challenging. I am grateful that I have so many friends around me to help me see reality. Those negative voices in my head; that like to replay my mistakes and blow them out of proportion are not reality. I recently had a birthday and the cards I received made me cry. My friends expressed so many beautiful and heartfelt messages. I saved the cards to read on those days when I am not feeling so confident and I need to forgive myself. They remind me of the love that I have and the light that is inside of me.

On the Canvas
Scrapbooking...well sort of. I am working on my family photos. I like to customize books on Shutterfly. Sometimes I mix in photos of the kids art work. Does this sounds a little ordinary and not creative enough for ya? Creativity doesn't always mean coming up with the next new idea. Sometimes being ordinary is creative. We are all different and each person's ordinary is very different from another's. Go ahead practice your own personalized creativity and don't listen to the inner critic!
Till we meet again my creative friends
