and the writing is still there.  waiting.

inhale.

and i'm writing.

exhale.

inhale.

    The last word? Or will you continue? It's a good feeling, & you've written it well, Michelle.

    Inhale
    exhale
    I'm taking a break from a monthly writing
    inhale
    exhale
    I'll keep reading

    Wishing you fun with poetry this month.
    I imagine that you not only write but even think in poetry form.

      You had me worried! I'm not planning on writing daily poetry. It's just that I couldn't NOT write today! We'll see how life and time transitions.

      Thanks for still stopping by and leaving a note! :)

    This is great! I walked in to school today and felt so strange when I realized I wasn't going to blog today. Doing something for 32 days in a row sure makes it part of your life!

    I thought about how each breath is a gift from God....and then my mind went to an old worship song...This is the air I breathe...

    Yesterday, when I got up, I felt something was missing. It was an empty feeling for not writing. Yes, it does seem a lot like breathing. Love ya, Mom

{#sol15} deeper than beauty 8/31

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! I have twin four and a half -- almost five! -- year old daughters.  I try to be consciously aware of what I say and do in regards to my body image and self-esteem and also with their body image and self-esteem. First of all, because I don't want them to believe everything that society says is true.  Even if they don't fully understand it today.  In addition, because they are fraternal twin sisters, I want them to understand they are individuals with unique and different bodies that God created for each of them.   However, society -- including my loving family and friends -- tell a different story and harmlessly create a comparison war.   My girls constantly hear how beautiful, adorable, cute, fill-i...

sols: a gift of words

Slice of Life  hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers . Join in and share a slice of your life. One of the best gifts I give myself is time to write Monday evenings for the Tuesday Slice of Life.  That writing time allows me the opportunity to think about the little moments in my life.  Sometimes those moments are big and important.  Other times it's a funny moment that made me laugh.  Or a celebration, a word, a poem about the ordinary life.  I'm still amazed that I have been writing each week for over three years! Yet, there is another gift . . . My mom and dad have published my writing.  Just this past Christmas, I received volume five of my blog writing.  Yes, I have five books f...
