“We learn to fly not by becoming fearless but by the daily practice of courage.”
– Sam Keen
I like the idea of a daily practice of courage. It is a gentle approach.
Imagine what you want to do and take small steps each day as you practice having what you want.
“If you hit the bulls eye every time, the target is too near.”
- Wendell Castle
This quote is a good one to remember.
So many times, we feel like our mistakes are such a big deal.
Usually, they are a just a little hiccup that will soon be forgotten or at best, they are an opportunity for growth.
I was reading Carol Sack’s In Medias Recipe blog post about making Clementine muffins with Clementine curd (a cousin to Lemon curd) and that got me started!
Not only did I make muffins and Clementine curd, but I got excited about the idea of making some citrus marmalade and possibly a Clementine pie – like a key lime pie with meringue.
While the idea of tantalizing our taste buds with sweet and tart citrus excited me, I was struck by the rich, bold colors of the oranges, Clementines, and Meyer lemons tumbling out of my grocery bags.
A while back I had an idea to take some pictures of color combinations and use it as inspiration.
So these globes of sunshine are the first official color inspiration feature of the month.
As I’ve mentioned in other posts about color, you can use this as a starting point to do almost anything your imagination beckons.
Use it to inspire an accessory change to brighten up your nest, an idea for a painting or a drawing, putting together an outfit, making some jewelry, or creating a meal.
Beautiful color can evoke emotions, memories, and ideas.
What idea does this spark for you?
