I love TED and the talks are truly inspiring, when I leave here I'll go have a listen.<br /><br />This week has been a challenge, yet I was in the kitchen and thinking about how as my husband gets weaker, I seem to be getting stronger. It's the ability to change the channel in our minds that is the key to staying happy. <br /><br />Have a beautiful night, and I love the way you see beauty around you. You are an inspiration.<br /><br />KarenAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01487481759201796912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-26691614016464226872012-06-06T17:32:07.150-07:002012-06-06T17:32:07.150-07:00I finally got to listen tonight and enjoyed it alo...I finally got to listen tonight and enjoyed it alot.

I will have to let that digest for awhile. I agree that we need to continue to "show-up" and keep doing what we creatively do, some good, some not so good, some great but keep doing...<br /><br />And I agree with all that the poor woman couldn't really see at all.

And by just showing up we are certain to not miss anything, but I really believe that there are blank spaces in our creativity so that we are able to recognize them when they show up as well. <br /><br />And too bad for that woman who couldn't "see", she was walking with her eyes wide shut. Because that is a gorgeous sky and silhouette!<br /><br />Loved listening to Elizabeth, thanks!Kim Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765296400379609580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-80013579217232026192012-06-06T08:28:01.274-07:002012-06-06T08:28:01.274-07:00Ditto what Dotti said!

I feel like I'm in one of those "just showing up days", but hey, I showed up! :)I loved listening to Elizabeth Gilbert speak, she has a great sense of humor too.heyjudephotographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098165048025314116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-62232212938167118912012-06-06T07:39:05.088-07:002012-06-06T07:39:05.088-07:00Oh, and I love the photo!

Sometimes I think we put too much undue pressure on ourselves to excel every day, not just in our creative pursuits but in other life tasks as well. Let's face it, some days, we're whirling dervishes and surprise even ourselves with our creativity and productivity; other days, not so much. And that's okay. We need to give ourselves permission to be human. The key thing is to keep showing up. Day after day. Picture after picture. Blog after blog. You can't hit it out of the park every day but we can show up for the game.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />DottiDottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-48278815545979461012012-06-06T05:45:40.483-07:002012-06-06T05:45:40.483-07:00I love the TED talks - I listen to them alll the t...I love the TED talks - I listen to them alll the time.
