It’s my miracle!
Do you know the feeling when something amazing happens or is about to happen? It feels like magic, like a miracle landed on your doorstep. Then you tell someone, because you have to share it. There are the supportive ones who give you a hug a say you go girl, then there’s the ones that look at you with either pity or doubt with a “well-meaning” sentence that kicks you in the stomach and you fall down from the clouds. That’s when you know you should have kept it to yourself just a little bit longer! I’ve learned my lesson a few times already. But I still believe that everybody wants me well, and that there will be peace in the world.
I write stories for children about magic elephants and I paint giraffes that can fly, what do I know? I do know this though, I prefer to be naive than to burst someones dream or hope. So even if someone is standing in front of me saying something silly like they dream about being taller, I just say; that sounds wonderful, then you can see the clouds better. Who am I to step on their hope or burst their bubble?
So, not to burst my bubble, or yours, but either keep your miracle a secret till it’s strong enough, or stand up and tell the person who dares to doubt you in the face and say;
It’s my miracle, be nice or stay away!
How about you; any cool miracles happen lately?
My dearest Anne, it’s a shame when someone feels that it’s their place to crush dreams, dash hopes and wipe the light out of someone’s eyes. But guess what, those folks are outnumbered by the people who genuinely want you to succeed, cheer you on, think the world of you, support you and share in your every bit of happiness!!!! Count the good folks in your life and never stop counting! Hugs and hugs to a wonderfully talented woman with a good heart. Sharon
Oh that’s music to my ears Sharon, thank you from my heart, you are so right and so sweet! I think we’d have a great time chatting over a cup of coffee or tea, because you are so genuine and wonderfully open. I do mostly avoid or tune out people like that, but I also think it’s important to remember that they do exist so we can know hiw to deal with them. And sometimes I forget, because my cloud is so bright I don’t understand why anyone doesn’t want to cheer and jump
the strange thing is when I’m down, I just avoid everybody…
Made me smile ; )
Thank you for the like – this world of blogging is amazing to me!
To find inspiration and like mindedness all over the world is breath taking!!!
thank you, that’s so sweet of you, hope we meet again soon!
Heller Naiv og lykkelig, enn realistisk og bitter!
Nettop! Ha en superfin dag, Ane;-)
Du også! <3
How about if I say “You GO girl!” (consider yourself hugged to). I love your blog and your ideas. I can’t say I’ve had any miracles lately, cool or otherwise and have been having a bit of a block w/the writing but just yesterday had my SIL say “well I (emphasis on the “I”) would write a blog but I just wouldn’t waste my time in front of a computer with something so stupid”. Huh? Ok, well thank you for your encouragement & support anyway. Frankly I had just served strawberry shortcake with whip cream & truly wanted to do the old pie in the face trick.
Sounds like the pie in the face would have been well surved;-) thank you so much for all your encouragment, it warms my heart and gives me purpose! I hope you find a way out of your block Diane, and please keep writing
So true about those reactions. Love this post!
thank you so much, happy you found something good in it!
When your heart is light with a breeze of cool air. Good day Nonoy Manga
thank you for those beautiful words, lots of light to you!
Dear Anne, I cannot report about any miracles happening in my quarters lately. I come here on your blog for my miracle fix you know. I feel it’s much safer. Why can’t I see your lovely drawing?
Ha ha, I’ll try to keep them coming then! No pressure! About the picture, I will check with my assistant;-)
Oh you have assistant. Not a temp huh?
Yeah, al though it’s in my head, this assistant… and a lazy one it is…
As long as you got it in your head, you got it under control

i do hope so;-)
Yes, I do know that feeling! I’ve learned too to stay quiet until I feel like I’m ready. There’s something delicious about a creative secret. I feel like my “Steel Trees” story was a miracle, thanks to you both.
Good on you, stay quiet until you’re ready, I like it!
I love that feeling! It’s that moment that’s just passed standing on the edge of a precipice but without the fear of falling. I have sternly told people to “step off my cloud” before. It sounds funny but it tends to jolt some people out of their own doldrums
I love that image, you telling someone to step off your cloud!! Oh I would love to see that! He he… And you’re right, it’s without fear of falling… You rock, enjoy your clouds Angelique!
BEAUTIFUL ANNE XOXOXO

That’s the way to go…I think, you girafes are beautiful, and we do need miracles, small, big, any sizes…:)
Yes we do, wish lots of them for you, thank you so much for your wonderful words..
Don’t let others get you down. Keep spreading your awesome imaginative art and peaceful message.
