Art Journaling ~ Come Embrace the Challenge!

SusiePBlog

Sometimes it’s hard to embrace challenges, but if we look deeply, we can find that we accomplish much more than we think we do. The hard part is identifying and describing our successes, and embrace what is good (and maybe even something that didn’t go right) about that challenge. This week, Cheryl challenged us with this:

Our word prompt for October is EMBRACE. Here’s the meaning of the word Embrace, according to the American Heritage Dictionary:

Embrace /ĕm-brās′/

intransitive verb

To clasp or hold close with the arms, usually as an expression of affection.
To surround or enclose.
To include or contain as part of something broader. 
(The American Heritage® Dictionary)

I was inspired by the first quote on the first mood board page. “Embrace the day, you’ll never get it back.”.

We had just returned back to the pier from a day of boating with friends. Chuck caught that opportunity to “throw in a line” while the rest of us were joking around. He was never happier than when he was fishing. This is one of my favorite pictures of him and his beautiful smile.

Here’s one of your randomly selected pages!!

I can’t wait to see what part of the challenge inspires YOU this week!
