		<title>art to inspire: life is about choices</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Are Monday mornings difficult for you? I get it. I&#8217;ve been there. But the good thing about the first day of the week is that you have a choice.

		<title>tooling around: words</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Words. Funny things, words. I mean, what are they? A few or more letters flowing together across a page. Sounds spilling from lips and floating through the air. For all their weightlessness, words can feel awfully heavy. Every word has the capacity to leave its indelible mark on someone&#8217;s heart. Say something kind and watch [...]]]></description>

		<title>This is NOT a &#8220;how to not care about what others think&#8221; post.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We all know we shouldn&#8217;t care what other people think about our decisions. The vast majority of us still twinge with the thought that someone could misunderstand our motivations or question our preferences. I do. I am, by nature, a fairly intuitive person. I detect quite a bit of below-the-radar information that is flying about [...]]]></description>

		<title>returning to self and life&#8217;s simple pleasures</title>
		<description><![CDATA[January 2012 may be the longest month of my life. Cancer diagnosis at the beginning of the year, when one tends to be in starting over and setting intentions mode, is an odd parallel to live. Still, it has been in many ways quite wonderful. Cancer forces one to take stock of what is important [...]]]></description>

		<title>little things link love: calligraphy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was little, I received a calligraphy set as a gift. It wasn’t all fancy with a feathered quill and ink bottle or anything, just a simple one with four colors of calligraphy markers and an instruction book that would spark a life-long fascination with illustrative fonts and typography. I wrote calligraphy constantly. It [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot lately about authenticity, harmony, congruence. About whether my values, desires, and what I want from life actually match up with my..yeah, life!

		<title>where craftiness comes from: your creative calling</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Throughout this column I have explored the idea of craftiness and where it comes from. It has allowed me to realize that craftiness and creativity are within all of us, no matter what upbringing we had.

		<title>How to keep your eye on the forest when the trees are so very lovely</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the things I started my new year off thinking about are my larger, longer, and bigger life and business goals. When taking stock of 2011 I realised that I had lost track of some of these bigger goals all for being focused on the smaller day to day ones. Most of us have [...]]]></description>
