Your challenge for this week

I once trusted my brother so solemn and true,
But he took from me, and my trust he did eschew.
His sultry lies and sly deceit,
Left my heart heavy, my anger replete.
In shadows cast by his treacherous game,
I feel the sting of betrayal’s sharp flame.
Yet from the ashes of trust that he stole,
I gather my strength and reclaim my soul.

Cold refreshing drink.
what is needed on this day.
Sipping and cooling.
Effervescence my relief.
On hot Sunday afternoons.

I have been encouraged by others to sell some of my artwork as postcards, stickers, prints, and more. Initially, I wasn’t sure if I should pursue this idea, but after discussing it with many friends who were really enthusiastic, I decided to go for it. Since I started this project, I’ve felt more excited than I have in a long time. I’m beginning to believe that this is something I am meant to do. I plan to take my time and enjoy the journey.

Atypical girl.
No makeup needed for her.

You must be true to yourself.
You are unique and special…

“You know that one thing you’ve always dreamed about? Write it down. Then take the first step. Today.” – Petra Poje

Shadows of the past,
Ghosts whisper in quietude,
Choices linger on.

Silence is golden.
There’s nothing to worry about,
or at least,
that’s what you might think.

“Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.” —Andrew Carnegie

Love is complex
It can bring happiness.
Or it can bring heartache
never knowing what it will bring
Take a leap and find out
No matter what, you are stronger than you think.
So keep going, even if it’s hard.
One day you’ll look back and smile,
Knowing you tried, and loved, and lived.
