We have all "been there, done that" at one time or another with being "stuck in a rut", "done" "finished" "over it"..whatever, and when you get to that point you need to, "ut um".....STOP. (insert screeching breaks sound effects)
clear your plate, clear your head....just stop.
The frustration, anxiety, stress,drama, (add your own words here) in your life are the neon signs that it is time for an adjustment, a change, a re-direction....BUT in order to adjust anything, change something or go another way.....you need to stop or else things just get worse, duh.
I have been working like a whirling dervish on "Doodle, Too" and in the class there are tons of inspirational quotes, scripture and bible verses (and patterns!)that go along with the page samples I have been creating...
many, no, most of which apply to everyday life and each one of us. IMPORTANT - Just like I have said a thousand times, don't let the words "bible verse" turn you away. I am NOT going to preach to you ever, I just want to remind you that the verses I use and talk about are good for everyone, regardless of your religion, your faith...or..your lack of. I just want to be a reminder...so as they say, "don't kill the messenger" (p.s. you probably have a had a verse or two in a fortune cookie with a different reference and did not say, that's it, I am not eating here anymore..at least I hope not!)
anyways, a great quote for today is
"Let each day be your masterpiece"
and start with Today....regardless of whatever is going on in your life right now...no matter how sad, bad, different, icky, sucky, troubled...dig deep..reach high..think hard...look back..change your focus and find a light that will make you smile.
Create about it...write about...tell someone about it...share it...and enjoy it.
Here is a little something that might make you smile...I am NOT a pet lover..at all. I like them, just prefer to look, not touch...unless they are like my dog coco, who always seems to want to be right in the middle of what I am doing...last night, as I was painting....I looked down and here is what I saw just to the left of my feet:
"a light that made me smile..."
Have a GREAT "masterpiece" day!
