Flowers for the Garden: PJ Morton's "Walk Alone"

stop making mountains out of molehills when they're not even real.  you need to go and follow your dreams.  it's not as hard as it seems...  -PJ Morton, "Mountains and Molehills"



this cd is giving me everything right now.  in particular, "Mountains and Molehills" is one of those songs that's my LIFE.  craziness.  inspiration at it's finest.  the entire cd is officially in heavy rotation in the car, on the laptop, and on the treadmill.

be encouraged, stars.

Thursday Throwback: Crayons

remember getting lost in the world of crayons?  coloring a really fly picture and giving it every ounce of your energy?  those were the days.  i liked to color using the technique my older brother taught me...a hard, solid outline and then a light shading-in with the same color.  fiyah!

i think i'll invest in a throwack box of crayons soon...there's no therapy like the soothing sensation of coloring...

be.  fly.
