    I'm your host for April and I decided that it would be fun to do a lift month. Each week I will pick a layout for us to lift. For week one I picked one of Cindy's layouts @cinderella
    (I had to) say no

    This page by Cindy really spoke to me, I have a major problem saying No to people, so I thought it would be a great layout to lift. On your page you can add journaling to your title
    I had to say NO
    but it isn’t necessary. I think this title can go both ways, are you a person that cannot say NO to people or are you able to easily say NO to something that is asked of you?

    And my layout.

    @Pachimac Susie, I can totally relate to this experience. I got tired of the "looks" that were not discernable and the questions they brought on. Then decided to ignore it and just be me like I had before. It worked!

    I think sometimes people just need to see others break through the fear.

    Yes! So true. We've nothing truly to fear but fear itself. And it was widely used against us.

    Mine. Drawing is mine as well, I did several back in 2016 for an AJ challenge here. You had to draw a face without lifting your pencil from the page. Lots of journaling, but it is blended into the face.

    No is my OLW for the year. It is not about saying no to people; it is about saying no to self-indulgences and hubris.
