encourage your hopes....

Too many times we let our fears get in the way. If you didn't listen to that little voice that said, "You Can't..." "It will be hard" "You might/will fail"
....if you didn't listen to that voice, where could you be? What could you do with your life? What dream could you be living? What goal could you reach?

encourage your hopes & dreams...

Only One In Color

Just as creating is healing for me, so is music.
"Music is what Feelings Sound Like"
I have been smashing, (Smash Book), and this is the title of one of my pages:

I found a song yesterday that I just fell for...
Trapt - "Only One In Color"
You can view the lyrics here.

This is what it inspired:
It is so easy to get caught up in this great big world...
remember: you matter.

"There is no one like you
and in a world of black and white
you are the only one in color
There is no one like you"
Don't ever lose you. You are beautiful. You matter. You make a difference.

What songs move you? make you happy? bring the tears? encourage you?
What song inspires you?

love, christine

as the journey starts...

hello. it has been so long since i have been here. i am sad to admit that it has been just as long since i have been in my studio. my life got very not right... and i let it affect me in so many ways. one of the most painful was sacrificing my creativity. it is not a healthy place to be... i have a rocky road ahead of me, but this past week i was able to go into my studio and actually create and not crumble in pain. This is what came to be...
to me it is so more than just a tag... every brush stroke, the colors, the techniques... i used what i feel. the tag is ripped in half... it is so important to hold on to creating through the tough times. it heals. it is a release. when you lose it, it's like losing a part of your soul and that is a pain that i do not wish on anyone....

so as i am starting my journey back i hope to continue to share as i create my way back to me....
