Cups of Inspiration

Watercolor project on paper inspired by the color palette found on two of my coffee cups.

Speaking of inspiration, I want to share this fantastic quote.

"You don't want to look like your heroes, you want to see like your heroes."- Austin Kleon

Today is the eleventh anniversary of 9/11.
I am re posting my memorial blog post of last year. The memory and ache of the day still
sits in my heart. I on that day was a new mom with a four week old watching the horror unfold on television not believing that this could be happening. I thought it was the end of the world.
The world did not end but many things as we knew them did.

A moment in time • A minute in memory • A second in life

As time stood still, still we were.

I thought, I paused.

I thought, I hesitated.

I thought, I contemplated.

I wanted to write, then I didn't write.

I wanted to say, then didn't say.

they wish

we wish

could wish

may wish

can wish

his wish

her wish

my wish

i wish

For Peaceful Days

For

Peace

Full

Days

In our history,

In our memory,

In our hearts.

•

Heroes all.

Word Path • Tomorow

_______________________________________________________________________

Everyone has a word path. One word leads to another.

Word Paths have been a Friday feature showcasing possibilities in written words, creative process and artistic pieces from the beginning of my blog You can go here, to my first post on this project and see how it all started.

___________________________________________________________

No I am not going to break into the song from the play "Annie".

I was having some thoughts on how tomorrow always has a bit of promise with it.

Tomorrow is when things may look better, get better, especially if today was filled with disappointment.

The promise of tomorrow helps us move forward from failure.

Tomorrow is the bright star in the sky if you are moving forward with your future.

We all look forward to the idea of that tomorrow in our hopes and dreams, because a better day will come.

Enjoy your tomorrow.
