take it further challenge

dmc-january.jpgi am participating in a challenge on one of my favorite blogs by sharonb of australia called http://inaminuteago.wordpress.com called take it further challenge. we are given two ideas. one is a theme, the other is a color scheme. i haven’t decided on one or the other yet as i am still pondering. i like color challenges especially when they are ones i wouldn’t usually pick. the theme is regarding “admiration”. i am choosing to keep it open ended…at least at this point. the challenge for me is to share my process. i have been pretty quiet in the sharing creativity with others world. what i admire and am inspired by is watching sharon’s process that she gives out so freely. the funny thing for me is i used to be that way except the medium was different. i actually think i will have a grand time sharing my process and thoughts and inspirations once i get through all the technical stuff. i feel a bit like a dinosaur emerging from under my piles and years of collecting from fabrics to ideas to UFOs. i don’t have many WISPs. so my current intend is to post my findings of UFOs as i go through my stash and post pix the i will have WISPs! sounds like a step to me! i decided to post this to get started as i tend to ponder a little too much and frankly i want to shine a little from within and with out : ) i need help posting images i want to take pix but don’t understand how to upload them yet. progress not perfection i breathe in i breathe out courage!

Mama I don’t feel well still
Seems pretty simple
In a perfect world
No stress
Sure son stay home
the teachers and staff who know you so well
will excuse you and help you through this troubled time
NOT
I am angry this morning
I intended to go to a w/s and now I feel
all twisted inside
Torn between life and life
I have plenty to DO here
can I find the place of feeding my soul within
Grumpy grumpy grumpy am I
I am staying home as in my heart I don’t feel I can be so far away from
my son and home
Is this new or old?
I am in a fog at the moment.
In a fog about making the “right” decisions

Sometimes life is confusing
like right now
I am confused
I am hoping by writing I will find some clarity

No one can save” me but me
No one is more my enemy than I

What is tying me to all these feelings?
I feel I should be able to make a decision and feel confident
I mean that is what I want to feel
CONFIDENT

courage oh kate
courage

this isn’t so big that you can’t pass through to
the other side
however it feeeeels big

: )

I breathe in I breathe out

Welcome to WWKD. It is a process, life that is. Learning to go with the flow…make mistakes if there are such things. Move into action especially love-based ones it’s what fascinates me in this thing called life. What would Kate do? Well, she has just done it, begin! Fearlessly. Courage!
