...in everything is knowing what to keep and what to throw away. That includes knowing what to say "yes" to and what to say "no" to. And what to focus on when you read and which words are just there to hold the others together. And what to eat all of and what to leave on your plate. And who to hold hands with and who to run away from.
They all--everything, that is--begin with an idea, and that idea can be distilled into a "this or that" format. Once it's this or that, the wisdom is in knowing which to keep and which to throw away.
A hint: Never, ever, throw away your freedom to decide. Always keep that, no matter the cost.

The combinations of stenciled, drawn and painted and the lettering is great. And at this stage of the week I am identifying with it.

I like that the phrase is covered and yet still clear - a subtle throwing away of part, but still keeping the essence.

I think I've told you before in the MYPL group, but I'll tell you again: I love your journal pages!
