Share your story with me

The flower at the bottom right-hand corner was once a piece of  tissue paper.
It's fun thinking up new ideas. Glue sticks are one of my favorite art supplies.

Here's my truth. I was beginning to feel discouraged with blogging. After careful thought, I realized how important it is for me to make a connection with the women who read this. Without your feedback, my passion starts to dim. I love sharing my story, but I'm equally inspired by yours. We're simliar, right? As women, we've all had some kind of experience with abuse, loss, repression, abandoment, and rejection. And aren't we all working to overcome it? I say we do it together.

My message this morning is this; Let's celebrate our differences, as well as things we have in common. Let's take off our masks, expose our hearts, and face our fears together. Let's put a stop to abuse, repression, and loneliness. Let's build a strong team by taking this journey together.
Are you on board?

   In case you missed it, here's what I wrote yesterday.
FYI- your feedback is an important part of my experience with blogging. It helps me know if I'm targeting areas that speak your heart. Plus, I love when women share, helping each other. Please feel free to write at the bottom of the page specified for comments. You can also use email or facebook, whatever is comfortable for you. I don't want to be the only one who's vulnerable, so how about joining me?

 What's the secret to taking good pictures? A cheap camera and lots of patience. What turns ordinary into extrordinary? Awareness. How many times have I walked by the same bush or dragonfly without really seeing it's true beauty? The same goes for people. When we look more deeply, we see God in everyone.

Share Your Story with Me
Share your story with me. Tell me how you found the courage to face your fears.
Share your story with me. Tell me how it felt to touch your deepest sorrow.
Share your story with me. Tell me how you faced being alone to heal abandonment.
Share your story with me. Tell me how you risked being vulnerable to love again.
Share your story with me. Tell me about your journey. 
                         
                                   I hope you'll share your story with me.     Debbie Crews
