Get creative

Hi there,



I have found that sometimes when I'm stuck and just don't know which way to move the best thing for me to do is engage my creative side. Now with me that can mean anything from taking out a knitting project (I have a beautiful wrap I'm getting ready to start on) to creating a new book. I'm a bookbinder, took a class in college and have been hooked ever since.



Another avenue I explore is poetry. I have no illusions that I'm going to be the next Poet Laurate, but I do have fun. Here is my secret ... I write alphabet poems, yes a little juvenile - I don't care for me they are fun. So here is one I'm willing to share, enjoy!

CREATIVITY

Courage to try somethng new

Risking the unknown

Eagerly I show what I can do

Adventures wait around each corner

Trusting in who I am

Imagination will keep the ideas flowing

Variety prevents boredom

Inspiration will show up in unexpected places

Tenaciously I will hold onto my dreams

Yearning for new challenges, I'm ready!

Here is my challenge to you: don't be afraid to try something new! Write a poem and see how far you go.

Cheers,

Coach Linda B
