What’s Inspiring You This Week?
Here’s What’s Inspiring Me…
Artists In Blogland
Fall Fearless And Fly Challenge
Fall is a time to reflect on
Shedding and releasing aspects of our lives
That don’t serve us, and
Embracing positive and uplifting perspectives
As we end one year and begin the next.
Jessica Sporn
Fall has always been a season of

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

Hi Wendy,
I wasn’t able to find your post – since the linky allows you to delete your links in case of an error, I am wondering if perhaps you already deleted it?
