Two friends were walking through the desertDuring some point of the journey they had anargument, and one friend slapped the other onein the face.The one who got slapped was hurt, but withoutsaying anything, wrote in the sand:

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.

They kept on walking until they found an oasis,where they decided to take a bath.The one who had been slapped got stuck in themire and started drowning, but the friend saved him.After he recovered from the near drowning,he wrote on a stone:

TODAY MY BEST FRIENDSAVED MY LIFE.

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friendasked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now,you write on a stone, why?" The other friend replied"When someone hurts us we should write it downin sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away.But, when someone does something good for us,we must engrave it in stone where no windcan ever erase it.

"LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS INTHE SAND AND TO CARVE YOURBENEFITS IN STONE.

They say it takes a minute to find a specialperson, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them,but then an entire life to forget them.

Send this phrase to the people you'll never forget. If you don'tsend it to anyone, it means you're in a hurry and that you'veforgotten your friends.

Take the time to live!
Do not value the THINGSyou have in your life.
But valueWHO you have in your life

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
