I too am a writer. But it's my friend's blog I'd like to point you to: www.alsointhisway.net She is an incredibly creative person, and a writer whom, I'm sure, will inspire you to not give up. <BR/> Many blessings, <BR/> Grace<BR/>www.gracedove.comGrace Dovewww.gracedove.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-65928008759465161372008-07-06T18:14:00.000-07:002008-07-06T18:14:00.000-07:00I wanted to let you know that I just started the whiteboards that you posted about the other day.

I dont think that is always a good thing though. Because for a very long time, people have been disappointed and not at all supportive in the choices I have made in life and in the goals I want to complete. So that makes it hard for me to be who I want to be because Im at my best with support from the people close to me.Carlahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00050048388619944702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-73396514606991135982008-07-04T22:01:00.000-07:002008-07-04T22:01:00.000-07:00totally inspired this very day. thank you!His Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13615344417588586576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-42356195216859913002008-07-04T19:48:00.000-07:002008-07-04T19:48:00.000-07:00Thanks for the reminder to encourage one another.

We all have goals and dreams. Sometimes they seem far off, and when someone makes a point to encourage and support you, it can give you a much needed emotional lift.Monkey's Mommahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06024128529492480852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-32980994785051625082008-07-03T22:00:00.000-07:002008-07-03T22:00:00.000-07:00So true!

She was so shocked that someone would ask! But you could see how much that meant to her - she had a definite bounce to her step after that! Encouraging someone can be in the simplest forms - I think it's so important to remember that! <BR/><BR/>And I agree with tiffany - you should frame that note. Or scrapbook it!Andreahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03683621437168392691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1538251275202889882.post-41974777721545400052008-07-03T05:54:00.000-07:002008-07-03T05:54:00.000-07:00I totally agree!

Someone close to me has been toiling along in an absence of encouragement and even when you know you're doing what God has for you, it still takes a toll not to have some reassurances and encouragement that it's not in vain.<BR/><BR/>(And what a lot of books you have to write!)
