Thank you Beth for asking me to participate in this year's blog crawl. This one really made me think! Trying to turn my life into an open book...intimidating! But somehow I had some major realizations come to mind! Here is a little snapshot of my life as an open book.....
The AUTHOR, The PLOT:
THE CHARACTERS:
The Plot CONTINUES....
Life will never slow down so you only have to make the most of each day that is given to you.
I woke up recently to realize that if I die tomorrow I would die a happy person....
The things I love in life such as design, art, photography, food, fashion, travel, etc. etc. etc. are all things I would give up forever if I could just have my husband, children, family, and faith. Take those away and my life would be insignificant. Being in a small simple town and being cut off from many of my favorite things has given me this epiphany of sorts;) So I realize that if my life's story read only these characters in its pages, it would be a book that I was proud of.
Be sure and check out yesterday's Blog Crawl post from The Alternative Wife and tomorrow's story from La Bella Bungalow.
Thanks for reading my story:D
