Good morning blog hoppers!!!!!
I am excited about this blog hop because you could
win a brand new "Enlightenment" SFTIO KIT!
This kit is simply amazing.
The next stop goes hand in hand with emotional scrapbooking
it is my baby Dirty Scraps Challenge Blog
If you leave a comment on every blog, you
will be qualified to win a new Enlightenment kit.
Here is one of the layouts I did with the "Enlightenment" kit
The reason I shared this one is because there is no journaling.
I will explain why.
This is a photo I took in Hawaii, many of you might know
how Hawaii changed my life.
My husband was just diagnosed with MS, I was at a cross
roads in my life. I had just confronted the people who
abused me my entire childhood.
I was feeling pretty worn down and broken.
I was feeling pretty worn down and broken.
I felt ugly, fat, and pretty much like a used up piece of garbage.
A friend approached me about a girls week in Hawaii.
In the end we decided to go but only if hubby came too because
we were so uncertain of the future at this point.
Going to Hawaii I found something inside me I did not know existed.
The people in Hawaii, they have this amazing spirit, they do not see
ugly...fat...tired...people. They see you as beautiful, in fact they
see everyone with love. It was so uplifting and amazing.
It changed the way I saw myself, and how I saw others.
After a lifetime of nothing but pain and abuse, I realized
there was so much more to life than anger and hurt.
People really do care, people are kind...I just had to leave my circle
of abuse to find it. In the end it also gave me to courage to
move far away from that life into TN.
It gave me to courage to see that even though
I am fat, I am amazing and BEAUTIFUL!
Because being broken and abused does not make you ugly
it shows others your amazing character.
Even thin people can be ugly because of their poor character and the way
they treat others. Weight makes no difference.
This is the story behind my "Enlightenment" layout.
I don't really believe in Enlightenment, but if I did that would
be as close as it gets :)
Now head over to the Dirty Scraps Blog!!!
Don't forget tomorrow I will draw a ribbon glue winner!
OK enough chatterbox for me!
