That we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Psalm 90:12

Zena – Healing Moments – Respect

Zena - Healing Moments

I am meeting the most amazing bloggers at the
One Word 2013 Blog Hop.
Since I find their words and their stories so inspiring –
I thought that you might too!

Today, I’d like to introduce you to Zena
Who chose Respect as her word for 2013!

Zena’s blog is filled with beautiful photography and
Inspirational writing. Enjoy your visit to her blog!

Inspire Me Monday #54 – Week Of January 14, 2012

Inspire Me Monday

I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
Judy Palmer

      Barbara’s article SO resonated with me to, Debra!
      I have been wanting to start the New Year with a clean slate SO badly…
      But the perfect symbol for my cluttered mind is my Inspiration board which is SO full of last year’s notes
      That there isn’t room for the fresh start I’ve been aiming for since Jan 1!

      I hope you have a fabulous week. Here’s hoping we both get “back to the basics”!
