Just a Thought....
"A decision is only wishful thinking until you take that first irreversible step. You can tell yourself that you have already decided, that nothing now can stop you. But if that step backwards is so much safer then steps forwards, what will hold you true to your path when the going gets tough? Sometimes, the right thing to do is to take that first irreversible step, the one after which you cannot go back."

Truth.
"Those who love you
are not fooled by mistakes you have made
or dark images you hold about yourself.
They remember you're beauty when you feel ugly;
your wholeness when you are broken,
your innocence when you feel guilty;
and your purpose when you are confused."
"I Am Me"
“I am Me. In all the world, there is no one else exactly like me. Everything that comes out of me is authentically mine, because I alone chose it -- I own everything about me: my body, my feelings, my mouth, my voice, all my actions, whether they be to others or myself. I own my fantasies, my dreams, my hopes, my fears. I own my triumphs and successes, all my failures and mistakes. Because I own all of me, I can become intimately acquainted with me. By so doing, I can love me and be friendly with all my parts. I know there are aspects about myself that puzzle me, and other aspects that I do not know -- but as long as I am friendly and loving to myself, I can courageously and hopefully look for solutions to the puzzles and ways to find out more about me. However I look and sound, whatever I say and do, and whatever I think and feel at a given moment in time is authentically me. If later some parts of how I looked, sounded, thought, and felt turn out to be unfitting, I can discard that which is unfitting, keep the rest, and invent something new for that which I discarded. I can see, hear, feel, think, say, and do. I have the tools to survive, to be close to others, to be productive, and to make sense and order out of the world of people and things outside of me. I own me, and therefore, I can engineer me. I am me, and I am Okay.”

Think I found my inspiration....
Been in a crafting funk lately and I have not been inspired AT ALL. I came across this site and I fell in love. These fabrics are gorgeous. The colors are so vibrant and full of life... it definitely makes me want to start sewing again. Looks like it is time to invest in another sewing machine....
