Scrappin' without Scraps

New Endeavor

Nobody starts a creative endeavor without a certain amount of fear; the key is to learn how to keep free floating fears from paralyzing you before you’ve begun.

Mother's Day

A few quotes for Mother's Day

The one thing children wear out faster than shoes is parents.         

~John J. Plomp

************************

The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.  She never existed before.  The woman existed, but the mother, never.  A mother is something absolutely new.            

~Rajneesh

*******************************

Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are their own.

~ Aristole

Happy Mother's Day! 

Being Someone

This one is from the fashion world - from Coco Chanel of all people....

How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone. 

Mozart

People err who think my art come easily to me.  I assure you, dear friend; nobody has devoted so much time and thought to composition as I. There is no a famous master whose music I have not industriously studied many times .   

~ Mozart (in a letter to a friend)
