life notes; flaws and all

a daily breath...

A thought du jour, my daily breath includes collected and conceived observations, questions of life, fortune cookie philosophies, reminders, messages of peace and simplicity, unsolicited advice, inspirations, quotes and words that got me thinking. They may get you thinking too . . .

I'm like a pencil;
sometimes sharp,
most days
well-rounded,
other times
dull or
occasionally
broken.
Still I write.

I’m going to do today as I did yesterday; step by step, minute by minute, I will keep moving forward.
I am not expecting too much, knowing the planet will continue spinning on its axis as it has been doing for, at least, the past few days. It’s pretty consistent, really. I see no reason why I can’t follow the example.
Each revolution brings another day; each moment passes in its own way. Step by step we move ahead. Evolution follows revolution, staying on the path is a natural solution.

Need To Create
Posted on October 21, 2018 by j.g.lewisLeave a comment

What’s holding you back from creating something?
Creativity, yes, it is a need. We all need to create something, in some form, that allows our mind and talents to stretch beyond current possibilities.
Painting, quilting, writing, dancing, baking: all genuine acts of creativity, and there are so many more examples. It is all up to you and your personal preferences.
It is very personal.
Creativity; we all have it, but we don’t always use it.
Why are you waiting?
What is your excuse?
There is never an ideal situation, but there is always now.
Know, deep inside, that your creativity is greater than any excuse, or person. Creativity is even greater than your self.
