The Lotus
Beneath mud and muck,
Victorious, she rises,
Eyes facing the sun.

Quote Tuesday
step into the unknown (Photo credit: Eddi van W.)
“Wholehearted living is about engaging in our lives from a place of worthiness. It means cultivating the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough. It’s going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn’t change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging.” ~ Brené Brown
A Thought For Your Monday
Tulip (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
“A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different. And there’s room in the garden for every flower. You didn’t have to struggle to make your face different than anyone else’s on earth. It just is. You are unique because you were created that way. Look at little children in kindergarten. They’re all different without trying to be. As long as they’re unselfconsciously being themselves, they can’t help but shine. It’s only later, when children are taught to compete, to strive to be better than others, that their natural light becomes distorted.” ~ Marianne Williamson
Week 16, The 52 Project
D. on Easter Sunday, lkw
Happy Easter to everyone. Today begins week 16 of The 52 Project. I am posting a shot of D., my seven-year-old grand-daughter. Unfortunately, she is the only one of my 6 ¾ grandchildren who was able to spend Easter with us, but fun was had by all. In between the cooking, Easter egg hunts, eating, and other excitement, I coaxed her to sit among a patch of Texas blue bonnets. Of course, she insisted that her new stuffed animal be included in the photograph. I think that both of them are little cuties. (Now, if I had any Photoshop skills, I am certain that I could have gotten rid of the car in the top right background, but alas, lacking that skill, the car stays.)
