The 'I' in You...

This week's page is the result of a failed experiment. From there it evolved in layers. I was trying modeling paste for the first time but didn't like the result. Then I did layers of stamping and painting. Finally it evolved into a very meaningful page for me.

On this side is a quote by Emerson. It says: "All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better."
For me it did get better. My page eventually turned out to be more meaningful. I discovered the following message among the layers and collage I finally came up with.

 " You might be a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother or a grandmother But the YOU is a very Important and Valued person. Let us never forget that."

While we are busy performing the various roles assigned to us in life, we forget the 'I' or the 'YOU' in us. I made this page to remind myself of the 'I' in me. Maybe the 'I' is not perfect, still she is very much valued and precious.


Thank you for being here
