Make This Life A Good Life

Life is short. 


This weekend we lost a family member to cancer. 



Though we never really saw eye to eye, I was able to make peace with her before she passed. It was a reminder that life is short. 


We may not know the struggles someone is going through, the pain they are feeling, the thoughts in their head, or what their motives are for the things they do.  


But I really do feel comfort in knowing that I saw this person grow. I saw her bring joy to others who I love very much. I believe it really was her time. I am glad she is now at peace. She deserves that.


You never know what tomorrow will bring. You never know when your time will come. Make the most of every moment you have here on earth.

Make today a good day :)

Marry that to an entrepreneurial spirit & at 9 years old a girl is selling her wares at craft fairs as far as her parents and grandparents would drive her. These days, Jennifer enjoys crafts of all genres from sewing to scrapbooking to jewelry with a little dabbling in the mixed media world. Her style is approachable and she wants everyone who sees her work to feel that they too can embrace creativity and make their home and life beautiful.

    Loss is never easy, regardless of the relationship. I’m glad that you found some comfort in my art print and shared it with your readers.
