M is for Map

 This week's Play prompt is 'M is for Map'.

I have a wee love of maps.
I'm old school -- I'd much rather have a paper map than a GPS.

Wisconsin snow

The kids had so much fun playing in the snow
over our Christmas visit to Wisconsin.
 
Grandma and Grandpa have the perfect sledding hill in their backyard.

happiness.


 
your experience in life
cannot exceed your
willingness to be vulnerable.

On the dotted line

The prompt this week in Play was on the dotted line. 
 
I often get comments on my big swoopy signature.
That is what came to mind when I thought
of the dotted line -- signing on the dotted line.


See what Carla came up with.




with grace in
your heart
and flowers
in your hair

Strengths and weaknesses

That's the prompt for Play this week.  (actually last Monday)
 
hmmm...not exactly easy to write these down,
and even harder to share. 
I struggled with this one, but then just started writing lists
on one of my blotting papers. 
I decided to make my blotting paper list into an envelope
and stitch it closed! 
I know whats in there. 
I know what I do well. 
I know what I need to work on. 
I'm just not ready to throw that out for all to see.





a candle cannot shine as bright as the sun
but one alone can light up the dark.
all it takes is a single
SPARK.

Wings

This weeks Play prompt was Wings.
 
I like wings.  I like quotes about wings.
I like to use wings in my art. 
 
 You are not meant for crawling.
So dont.
You have wings.
Learn to use them
and fly.
               --Rumi




See Carla's wings.
