I identify with the fact that today is the first in the ‘Identity’ series.
Prints are still available. $25.00
If you are tense, take a look and see if this might not be the problem.
Of course, to know this you have to admit what part of you is the part other people want you to be and what part is the part you want to be. That takes honest self-evaluation. Then of course the hard part come in. You have to admit it to the world and take action on it.
Have you been able to do this? How did you do it?

Quote is a Chinese Proverb
I found it online at the Facebook page of a friend, Kimberley Clayton Blaine. She is a wise woman, someone who is constantly growing and learning. She is one of those people you are glad is in the world. You can find her at her website/blog The Go-To Mom. She’s worth following.

Thank you Marty.Very cool napkin art of the proverb! Your words are so kind! I try hard to live life to the fullest… so far, it’s paid off! XXOO!
Kimberley, it’s very obvious to me watching you work, write and play over the past few years that you really are focusing on living out this proverb. It’s not an easy thing to do but the good news is, which you know already, is once you set your mind to resolutely sticking with who you are and want to be, the easier it is and the more others respect you for it.
