Mind. Body. Soul-Week 2/Lesson 2

How are you coming along, girls? Remember you are NEVER, EVER behind. Just jump right in and begin:) I had some time to finish my "stained glass" quote...here it is.

As you can see I chose to only take a few words from the quote..."Light from within" and

True Beauty.

 I painted colored squares to represent all the colors in stained glass. The black letters are old foam stamps from Making Memories.

So this week we are "reaching" deep inside ourselves so we can bring out into the world all that we truly want to do.

It's never easy to do that is it? Remember our quote from SARK Monday?

"We are all filled with wonders. Somewhere inside, you know this, even if you haven't made it real yet."


You know what you want. You know what lights you up and makes your tummy do flip flops.


You know.

And like I said in Monday's post...we just gotta jump in and start living!

Assignment Two:

Let's take some time and write. Writing is soooo very good for the soul. Whenever I am stuck in my life...nothing works at getting me unstuck like putting my thoughts and feelings down on paper {or the computer screen}

Our lives improve only when we take chances – and the first and most difficult risk we can take is to be honest with ourselves. - Walter Anderson 

1. What lights you up? 

2. What kinds of things can you be doing then before you know an hour or 2 has passed and you go...what?? How did that happen?

3. What did you want to be when you grew up?

4. Who do you want to be NOW that you are grown up?

5. Make a list of 25 jobs you could see yourself in. I know, at first 25 seems like a big number...but just see where it goes...you may be surprised.

By answering these questions honestly and really listening to your heart...you may be a bit scared at what you find out. I mean it's never easy to leave our comfort zone...yet, when we truly listen...we almost always end up being a bit uncomfortable. Change is never easy but it's the only way we can grow.

The human voice can never reach the distance that is covered by the still small voice of conscience.

Mahatma Gandhi

**You can answer these in your notebooks or your art journals...and you can even journal them in an artsy way. You do what feels right!

One more thing. This afternoon I enjoyed Rascal Flatts while working on my assignment from Monday...to just LET GO and create.

I am leaving you with something to think about from Benjamin Franklin...
