Creative

 Creativity is elusive. 

Some days it seems to flow out of me, onto a page like this, into a card I'm making, or even in the food I'm cooking.  

Other days, I halt and stop and throw away. Try again. Fail again. 

And I'm going to tell you right now, it's ok.  It's ok to fail...because in failing, you're one step closer to knocking it out of the park.  

You can stop yourself from big victories, from breakthroughs, and from the joy that comes from creativity if you don't keep making the effort.  

The effort is worth it. 

Today and every day.
