“A weed is but an unloved flower.” Unknown Think of yourself as a part of nature. You are necessary. You were created for a purpose. At times we bloom wildly and at others times we expose our prickly armor. It is our choice to use our natures to benefit ourselves and others or succumb to the negative and self-sabotaging characteristics which plague us. Beauty can be found in the most unlikely places. Look for the flowers in your weeds. Read full post “The Nature of You” at writingfromthekitchen.com.

My enthusiasm, “a thing that arouses feelings of intense and eager enjoyment”, for the colors blue and white mixes with my love of coffee for a delectable image of happiness. What thing “arouses feelings of intense and eager enjoyment for you? And what makes you happy? These are simple questions overlooked by us because we are so busy surviving, living day to day as if there is no enjoyment, only obligations. How much more wonderful if we can appreciate the small things in our lives that bring us joy, by capturing simple moments? Remember to take time out of your busy life to connect to the things you are passionate about and intensely enjoy. For it is in these moments, we connect to our truest selves #capturejoy #daysofsmallthings #createyourhappy #calledtobecreative #coffeelover #creativitymatters #findjoy #iloveblueandwhite #inspirationalblog #joyofsmallthings #simplemoments

You cannot speed read the book of life. True soul work happens behind the scenes while noticing the details and focusing on the words as they strike the chord of your meaning. Go deeper, don’t live on fast forward.

Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.” Steve Jobs So many times, we allow the distraction of circumstantial messaging to discourage us. It is at this time, we can rise to the challenge and present our authentic selves rather than hide under a cloak of pretension to please others. There is no greater beauty in this life than truth. Always be true to yourself! #authenticity #couragetobereal #writingtruth #amwriting #writerslife #iwrite #soulscripts #heartofthematter #creativitycoaching #beyou

A jack-o-lantern, according to an Irish legend, tells the story of a man who took pleasure in playing tricks on everyone. Yet the tradition of carving pumpkins goes farther back to describe strange flickering lights seen at night over bogs, swamps, and marshes. Sometimes referred to as fairy light, these carved pumpkins resemble a scientific phenomenon whereby methane and phosphine gases spontaneously ignite as they com into contact through the air, or a representation of bioluminescent plants like honey fungus. Although the fable of jack-o-lanterns as fairy houses appeals to the fantasy writer in me, I’m ok with the fact that there is typically a scientific explanation for everything on this planet. Jack’s face can remind us that although we all wear masks at one time or another, we should remember to let our light shine through, not overthink, and simply enjoy the “trick or treat” season with a “toothy” grin. I myself will probably indulge in a few treats tonight - mainly my favorites (Reeses cups, and Kit Kats) Happy Halloween! #jackolantern #amateurphotography #amwritingfantasy #fantasywritersofinstagram #ilovewriting #creativityeveryday #curiousity #artisticview #colorfullife #fallphotos

“I am a dreamer sitting in the middle of a garden looking for a reason. The season shall change yet I will grow until I can grow no more. The earth shall freeze and my buds will wait until the sun warms my soul. As the Spring will come, I will come back to grow again.” -Erika K Rothwell #hopewriters #writer #writersthoughts #writerstruggles #poems #autumnthoughts #amwriting #iwrite #creativepurpose soulscripts #artist #amateurphotography
