I wanted to quote from another favorite book of mine today:
Words of wisdom for Women (365 words)
I love this book and had an idea to do a set of cards using these words. I made a few, and I'm going to make more because the words are powerful...
The word for today is:
ACCEPT
Recognize what you can change and what you can't. In every moment, ACCEPT that
everything is as it should be. ACCEPT that your body is round and fat and glorious.
Just love it. ACCEPT that you don't do things the way everyone else does. Just embrace
it. ACCEPT that sometimes your belly hurts, sometimes you don't have enough money
to pay the light bill, sometimes life is too hard. Just cry and move through it. ACCEPT
that you can't do it all-and who would want to anyway? ACCEPT a kind word. Don't appologize. ACCEPT a gift- no matter how big, how small. Say Thank you without embarrassment. ACCEPT that life isn't always fair and find the wonder in that, too. Don't Accept things
that aren't yours, like misdirected shame and blame. Like credit for someone else's accomplishment. Like disrespect. ACCEPT everything you are, and nothing you are not.

Meant to say, great creativity incorporating the fabric into this card!! That's probably an element most, if not all, doing the challenge failed to consider. Some may not have even noticed it there! Great eye for detail...Flora's child! LOL!
