“In pursuing our passions, following our hearts, and believing that life, and the people in the world, are mostly good, choosing gratitude and joy becomes second nature to us.” ArtJoyFaithCreativityGratitude Book:Called to Be Creative: A Guide to Reigniting Your Creativity Source: Called to Be Creative: A Guide to Reigniting Your Creativity
“When did I lose that natural sense of accomplishment that came with everyday tasks? Was it upon the birth of baby number two, three, or four? Or did I retain it even through my sixth pregnancy, when I bleached everything in sight, washing my cotton nightgown so frequently that the bright bluebell pattern faded to a dull gray? To this day, I can recall the fresh scent of the bleached and sun-dried gown and bedsheets. It wasn’t until I’d gotten through a difficult labor and delivery, and my head hit the hospital pillow, that I realized I’d attempted to replicate the smell of hospital linens—the one place I was able to get some rest.” HomeCreativityMotherhoodSimple Things Book:Called to Be Creative: A Guide to Reigniting Your Creativity Source: Called to Be Creative: A Guide to Reigniting Your Creativity
