My Deeds My Words My Art

Lilaclady, Oct 25, 2010

Description:: My last layout for the Scrap Your Freaking Heart Out competition, TFL
journaling: I can't move mountains or fly to the moon but I can make a child laugh or make my spouse smile. I can help a friend in need or lend a kind ear to another. I can be true to myself and honest to all that I meet. These are the deeds I am proud of. My words are not always flowery. In fact, I swear much more than I aught but I do offer words of comfort, encouragement and love to those that need them. I also use words to bring amusement and joy to those in my world. My art is a tool to soothe my soul, to keep in touch with my heart, to record my love of life, my love of family and to preserve memories to leave for those that come after me.
