Tell Me.... Who Are You?

Our prompt today will require a serious look in the mirror, at ourselves, our values, our gifts, our character and our beliefs.

Most of us have tried to be someone else at one time or another during our life ..we have tried to be something that we are not but that we have admired in someone else..That list could look like this. I wish I was more out going, didn't come on so strong, could speak up, could keep my mouth shut, was Suzy home maker, was a powerful business woman, was artistic, could sing, was taller, was shorter....You get the idea.

By seriously thinking about and writing down who we are...it will be clearer who we are not and it will help us be all that we can be and all that we were intended to be. Everyone has gifts. Often we look at and/or envy others gifts to the point that we do not even recognize our own. What do you love to do? What are you good at?What do you enjoy (activities, type of music etc) What do you believe? What grinds your gears? All of these questions will help you see your own gifts and abilities.

This is not intended to be an exercise in giving up on goals or desires. For example if you are over weight or even underweight...perhaps you CAN do something about that so don't say..."Oh well..that is just who I am". However if you are short..there is really nothing you can do about that and it is just part of who you are.

This should be at least a full page in your journal.

If you have any questions leave a comment and I will get back to you at some point today.

Have a blessed day.

Sending Love,
Susan

My Outlet is.............

We all need an outlet, something that we enjoy, something we can stream energy into, something that will help reduce stress.

Some people exercise, some have hobbies or sports they participate in. There are several other positive outlets.

There are also many not so positive or negative outlets. Some examples are excessive drinking, excessive shopping and excessive eating. When we choose a negative outlet to relieve the stress we are feeling we actually create more stress in the process.

Our prompt today is to write what out outlets or stress busters are. Examine them closely. Are they healthy? How often do you do them. Are you doing them enough?

Have a beautiful Spring day where ever you are.

This Weeks Art Journal Prompt

is

outrageous!

I can't wait to see our interpretation and your art!

The life I touch for good or ill will touch another life, and that in turn another, until who knows where the trembling stops or in what far place my touch will be felt." Frederick

Today our prompt is to write this quote in your journal. Now think about the people whose lives you touch on a regular basis. What impact do you have? How can your actions, words or the way you treat someone today impact people that they may interact with now and in later years.

We seldom think about the words that come from our mouths and the way we treat others could actually change the world..at the minimum your world and theirs.

I think of children, grandchildren, my mother and my husband as the people I am around most. As parents I think we underestimate the life long impact we can make in the lives of our child (for good or for bad).

Free flow write...(meaning don't stop and think about how it will sound just write what you feel when you think about this subject.

Have a wonderful day!

Sending Love,

Susan
