#thiscreativejourney: Embracing Tenderness

Today was a day of #forgiveness. We had a late start to the morning, rushing out to be on time. At the studio today: Instead of making some progress with my creative work I had to sit out a headache. In all my resistance I tried to grasp onto a resilient, push through attitude...but I know better. I fought and pushed until I realized it. Awareness flooded in and I resigned my expectations, chose #grace and forgave myself. Now, I sit here with my kids in the glow of our twinkly lights watching Family Feud and eating pizza, This is life. It's okay to have bad days. Change direction, choose grace, embrace tenderness. #practicingwhatipreach
