Journal Prompt Week 18

The beautiful thing about life is you can always change, grow and get better.  You aren’t defined by your past.  You aren’t your mistakes.  Such a great idea.  I like to think that it is true.  I hope that even when I am very old I am still growing and getting better!

    It is a beautiful and hopeful quote. I would say it is not always true, though. A depression or traumatic event can stop your growth, and actually push you back down. Once in a vicious circle you might need help to change your life for the better. Mistakes can cling to your forever... Sorry I am so pessimistic.

    I'm approaching very old. LOL I still am getting better all the time! I still believe in this saying, because I'm still making mistakes. desertskyquilts on WP

  LeeAnna  has asked Did you take your lunch and did you use a little brown bag or have a lunch box?  From kindergarten to grade six, I went home every day for lunch.  My school was about a block away and Mom was a stay-at-home mom.  Most kids went home for lunch back then.  I am grateful for that privilege.  In grades 7 and ,8 I had to take the school bus and bring my lunch.  The school closest to home was too full.  When I went to high school, I walked but it was too far away to go home at lunch.  I brought my lunch.  I don't remember what I used but it certainly wasn't a lunch box.  I was way too cool for that by age! It feels good to be getting into the swing of the fall season.  Life was busy over the summer with watching my two granddaughters.  I am finding the time to get some projects finished up.  That feels good.  I am also back to yoga classes more often.  I love that my body is getting stron...

 I love moving something from the unfinished pile to the finished pile.  It feels great.  I saw a quote last week.  It said, "I need to give myself credit for how hard I am trying".  What a terrific idea!  I regularly show up for my creativity and that is a good thing!  I regularly complete projects.  That is also a good thing!

   I am glad that  LeeAnna  asks these questions.  It is fun to think about the answers! did you get school clothes and shoes for the start of school? Did you look through the enormous Sears catalogue at all the possibilities and dream?  Remember going to the store with probably a mom, and trying on clothes? A shoe store for your "school shoes" Back-to-school shopping was not done in our home.  Mom bought clothes when she found a good bargain.  Mom sometimes would sew or knit for us.  We also got hand-me-downs.  We were always clean and appropriately dressed for the season.  I hated the ugly footwear she would buy for me.  I now have a very large collection of gorgeous shoes!  Lots of sparkles! My family got together this past weekend.  Cousins, aunts, and uncles all came together for a barbecue at my home.  There were 30 of us all told.  14 of which were under the age of 16.  It is lovely to get caught...
