Words (of Wisdom) AKA Motivational Wall

Let me start by saying I *heart* words....I think they are HOT and very much a turn on in my world. I mean really---juxtaposition, uber, fantabulous....how can you not love these? I am SO not a creative person and while I like photos and colors and sights the written word has always been where my passion lies, so it goes without saying when I read the Monday Project this week that my Motivation Wall would be filled with words!

Odd though how one of my favorite things (words) have such a seedy dark side as well....maybe a bit like me! I was thinking [while in front of the mirror where I always say bad words to my reflection] about the power of words to hurt---- big words like FAT, UGLY, STUPID, MORON, RACISM, DEATH, DIVORCE, TAXES.....you get my drift. I would like to take the sting out of these more and take away their power....I guess I would settle for saying less bad words to myself!

For my motivation wall I used words and quotes found from the magazines collecting dust in my powder room and am building an elaborate mural on my bedroom wall centered around a large calligrapy quote of LOVE CONQUERS ALL....in lieu of pictures (I am technoillerate---plus I cannot find a USB cord for my camera) I thought I would share my words with you:

"We all grow into the beautiful person that we're supposed to be"


I will be gone until Sunday night....in the meantime, leave me some words!

  1. OMG I love this SO MUCH! We do this sort of collage in group 3 times throughout the course. One is "Beginning Self - Where am I at right now?" Second one is "My Best Self - positive visualization" and the third is "Future Self - write your future story." No Oprah magazine gets by unscathed! I too, love words. So here are a few from me to you. "Fearless" "Yes" "Now"
    "Enjoy the Journey"
