I took a day off writing yesterday...it was Ash Wednesday....the beginning of Lent. Being raised in an Italian/Irish Catholic family, we always observed Lent, the 40 days before Easter. Part of that ritual is to give up something during that time....I was thinking what that should be this year and I decided it would be Fear. I am giving up Fear for the next 40 days. I know that may sound weird but I often find myself in one of two places....Faith or Fear...it's a conscious choice. I've also picked up my journal again, not my art journal, but my personal journal to document my journey of 40 days without fear...should be an interesting journey I'm sure. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic. You can email me at Mari@MariRobesonHome.com. Back to design stuff tomorrow! :-) Cavallini journal available here http://www.paperstudio.com
