I tend to go through phases and their quite amusing to look back on! In recent history there was my "homesteading phase" where I was reading about and delving into all things "farmgirl" (this one has been off and on for the past 5 years but turned into "homesteading" as soon as I found a name for it!). Now you know the real reason for the chickens!
Then there was my Beatrix Potter - drawing & painting phase inspired by the movie "Miss Potter". For some reason this phase inspired me to want a bunny!
When I read Anne of Ingleside and found one of my favorite quotes "some folks think babies a luxury, but here at Ingleside we think their a necessity!" I of course was in a baby phase (wanting #4!).
I've also had a music phase - piano lessons for 2 years (so we now have a piano!). A blogging phase...a photography phase...a secret garden phase... And all throughout each of these times I seem to be more inspired in every sense of the word.
Well, what do you do when you just don't feel inspired? It must be time for a good book or a great movie! Have any suggestions!? I better be careful what I wish for though because once it becomes a phase we usually end up with long lasting results!
Such a darling bunny!
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Beth Moore's "Stepping Up" promises to be inspiring and life changing. She says the only requirement is to "come hungry."
As for a fun and inspiring movie, try the Frank Capra classic "You Can't Take it With You." Reminds me of our house sometimes!
Ah yes, the ebb and flow of inspiration! I guess I don't know of any especially inspiring reads, but I can suggest a fun one: True to Form, by Elizabeth Berg.
ReplyDeleteRelax during this time of ebb. You'll be flowing again before you know it!
Okay, I don't have any suggestions. I think I'm just feeling uninspired myself this morning but I do like your style! I love the idea that something fairly ordinary can inspire a whole phase for you. You are my kind of girl!
