Yes, we are busy in so many ways. I tend to have a lot of family obligations at this time and it slows the flow of my work. I’ve learned this secret: It’s really all about chipping away a little at a time. You can do this!
Today’s we have two high fives from sisters: Catherine Gilbert Murdoch, author of a number of great books: Princess Ben and Dairy Queen, and her sister Elizabeth Gilbert, the author of Eat, Pray, Love.
Yep, a creative family can help you on your journey. These sisters have tossed down some wonderful literary stuff. How cool is that?
I hope that you have someone in your family that is just as on fire for creative pursuits as you. (I know not everyone has a natural creative family, your family is the people you love, group with, and grow with, not necessarily born to.) It’s nice to journey with folks like that. I hope you take some time today be thankful for your creative family. I know I am.
Come back tomorrow for more of the Golden Coffee Cup!
Today's quote is a blessing. I'm big on blessings. Words have power. Never doubt it. I thought I'd say a little traditional Irish blessing over us all for this day in the road.
May you always be blessed
with walls for the wind,
a roof for the rain,
a warm cup of tea by the fire,
laughter to cheer you,
those you love near you,
and all that your heart might desire.
Thanks for the encouraging words as always, Molly. Snowing here and my son is taking the bus to the store with his wife to get our turkey. So good of them. Crossing fingers that our kitchen pipes won't burst and flood over Thanksgiving. Thankful for the heat, and, yes, still writing today on the new novel which is flowing.
Irish blessing right back to you, Molly:
May you always be blessed
with walls for the wind,
a roof for the rain,
a warm cup of tea by the fire,
laughter to cheer you,
those you love near you,
and all that your heart might desire

Hi Janet! You are wonderful. I love the reflective blessing. Wonderful. Yikes, I hope it is warming up there! Molly:)
