If you've read my little introduction to my family at the top of the page you know that when Rhett was born I dealt with severe postpartum depression.
Thankfully with a lot of faith, medical help, prayer, support and understanding I've come a long way since then.
I am so beyond grateful for that, and even though I hope to never experience it again or wish it on anyone, I am honestly grateful for going through it and the blessings it brought into our lives.
Still, I struggle some days with overwhelming anxiety.
So restoring furniture has become kind of therapeutic for me.
I mean lets face it...going to work on a piece with a power sander is a great way to release a little stress. :)
The past few days have been difficult and it's been awhile since I had to deal with the big A (anxiety).
Blah.
Below is a short clip I LOVE, of part of a speech given by one of the leaders from my church and regardless of your religious background I think it is true for all of us.
It motivates me on the days when anxiety seems to want to take over.
It's about creativity.
The creativity we all have and the creativity that makes our sphere of influence better.
And I want to thank you for all the creative work you do that I see on your blogs and in your lives!
It is incredibly inspirational. :)
Enjoy and I hope it gets your week off to a great start!
