Paralyzed... [happy Moody Monday!]

It's such a shame.

I'm taking this AMAZING blogging course by Holly from Decor8 and all i feel is paralyzed by blogging.  - that my blog isn't pretty enough, or smart enough, or inspiring enough.

It's very hindering; these feelings...  especially when i am CONSTANTLY inspired by everything i click online.

I have trouble being completely paralyzed by EVERYTHING i need to do in order to be a good blogger, a good business person, successful enough to survive, etc.

I have trouble figuring out what the right FIRST steps to take are in this social networking world are...

I don't actually consider myself a jealous person necessarily, but i always feel like I'm behind, and could never be 'as good' or as 'interesting' as other people. I truly am not trying to compare myself, but right now, i feel like there is so much to do to 'catch up' and that there is SO MUCH inspiration online, that i get distracted or want to do everything, which makes me lose sight of what makes me genuine.

What breaks my heart the most is knowing i've dealt with these emotions for SUCH a long time! Years! And the that it's been hindering my growth for years, seems so very heart wrenching...

Does anyone else feel these heavy feelings? I don't feel as though i am alone in this boat, but sometimes the boat swishes through the waves, and i don't hear any other voices.

It's quite daunting.

I hope you had a WONDERFUL weekend!

Inspired. Learned. Quoted.

I learned so much at church tonight that i wanted to blog about it! I can't wait to doodle all these INSPIRING quotes and wisdom bits. :D

"everyone has SOMETHING to offer" 

"Little bits of faithfulness. Thats how the world changes"

"choose to trust even if it's hard"

"I've never met anyone who regretted trusting God"

"choose joy"

"farther along, we'll understand why"

"God is always at work, even if we can't see it"

"the most amazing things about god is how he heals us'

I'm in NEW YORK!

I know i've been kinda of MIA after being pretty consistant for a little while, but i wanted to say hello from THE BIG APPLE! I'm staying with two of my favorite people in Queens, NY, enjoying the 'fall weather' AKA warm tempatures in the AM, cool in the evenings... 

But it's been a GREAT time thus far!

I hope you're having a lovely week!

smiles,

Jenipher :)

Happy Friday everyone! I saw this video this morning courtesy of Chris Hall and found it captivating. Enjoy!

Science SHRINKS

I am thoroughly enthused by Shrinky Dinks and have been marrying my love for them with my new love for science related Art. It's been quite glorious!

Have a intelligently creative day!

Saves the Day, saves MY day.

Laying on the mattress on the floor. 

Room draped in sunlight. 

Record spinning playing the lyrics I love. 

Slowly contemplating. 

Draw draw drawing the lyrics that make my heart light up.
