today, you inspired me.

i am easily inspired.

randomly somethings.

by random people, places, or things.

and those inspirations mold me and make me better.

so i have decided to dedicate a

cartwheels to car wheels series:

today, you inspired me.

this way, we can all be inspired

by small things or silly things

or things that make us smile.

because i think we could use a little inspiration every now and then.

so my first "today, you inspired me"

goes to miss natalie marie.

she has made the decision to conclude her blog

sadly

and write all of her thoughts and goals and things

in her journal.

no, she didn't inspire me to end my blog

{my blog is one of my favorite things}

but she inspired me to keep a journal.

i justify not doing so already

by saying "i have a blog,

this generation's journal"

but that is not right.

believe it or not

there are things that are probably not

"blog kosher"

for example:  depressing things. 

my blog tries to be a happy and positive little thing

that i dream of my grandkids reading one day

and laughing at my shuttle experiences and embarrassing moments.

so i "write" about the negative things in my mind journal and eventually forget about it.

but i should also remember the bad so i can be even more grateful for all the good.

so, i will attempt at keeping a journal from now on

full of blog ideas and non kosher blog ideas

so i can remember everything

the good the bad and the really really bad.

natalie.  thank you.

our beloved dare to be darling will be greatly missed but...

today, you inspired me.
