Just Amazing!

Hello All! 
I don't have much new to say. I'm still preparing the manuscript for my third book for printing and production. I'm also working on re-releasing the first two and I can't forget about my freelance work. 
I was stressed from everything I had put on my plate and from the unrealistic deadlines that I set. It's all good now. I had to check myself. I had to remind myself of what I have already accomplished. I sadly had to remind myself to be thankful. 
I'm sharing "Amazing" because, during the holidays, it is easy to forget about the little things. It's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle. We sometimes forget to look around and take note of the natural beauty that surrounds us.
I hope you take some time to stop and smell the poinsettias. I know I will!
See you next week.
Much Love, 
Candie

Amazing!

 Tell the story of
amazing things!

Like a fiery sun
and a bird with wings,
A roses’ petals,
A mighty oak’s leaves,
Hands to write and
lungs to breathe.

Doggies to pet and
cookies to consume.
The sweet personality 
  of my very own room,

Toes that curl and
 cheeks that blush
Who could have thought
life would mean so much?

A stereo blasting
that stirs the feet,
And the big block party
that unites by beat.

A patient approach
to fulfilling my needs and
the faith of knowing
Who resides in me.

Tell the story
 of amazing things!
Like a heart that loves
and a mind that thinks,

A spirit that grows
and what it explores.
 Enough that is abundant
and requires no more.

A mouth with which to testify,
the human body that you use-
A glorious plan for your spirit,
found by exploring your truths.

Tell the story of amazing things!
Better yet, live it!
