I can fly, and YOU can fly, too

Look past fear. Look past doubt. YOU are the ONLY person like YOU in the universe! Think about that. No - Really stop and think about that. No one else can stand in your shoes and see life in the exact way that YOU do. YOU have the means to reach your potential. I can fly, and YOU can fly, too!

If you can see it, you can do it. If you just BELIEVE it, there's nothing to it. How do I know that?

I know this because of YOU! I could see myself helping hundreds or thousands of women find their voices through creative journaling. I could clearly see that my contribution to this life, my passion in this life is showing others the way to their own creative nature and inner voice. And I truly BELIEVED I could do it!
There have been plenty of moments of struggle and wanting to "throw in the towel". There have been plenty of tears and even fits of rage as I navigate my way through this Internet technology, but my BELIEF was always stronger and now I CAN FLY! How do I know this?
I know this because of YOU! I know this through your smiling faces and comments on my blog posts. I know this because of the wonderful network of creative journalers I am so happily part of and I know I CAN FLY because of the love and support I receive from other creatives who are on this same journey.
I can fly, and YOU can fly, too! So get into your "HAPPY CREATING!" and let not just your art shine all over the world, let YOU shine all over the world. Give yourself permission to be YOU and fly!
