Join the Two Writing Teachers Slice of Life Challenge.
My One Little Word for 2015 is Reach. Kim Douillard puts out a photo challenge each week. Guess what the theme is this week? Reach!
So here are some of my own photos that Reach.
While most of the country is frigid, we are experiencing springlike weather here in Louisiana. The live oaks reach for the blue sky.
I continue to Reach out with my prayer shawls. I delivered this one to Lyndel on Sunday. She is now wrapped in peace while she nurses her ill husband.
The amaryllis gift just keeps on Reaching. This is the second blossom sprouting. I am not very green when it comes to keeping plants alive. This display of growth gives me strength. Thanks, Jen.
I am still reaching for my poetic soul and writing poems to Laura Shovan’s Sound Poetry Project. Click on over for some poetry love.
Capturing your OLW in photos is inspiring. I saw your pics on Facebook of Maggie’s move. My heart is reaching out to you and your daughter! Your prayer shawls are so pretty.
Love you, Margaret. After this week, things should slow down for me. What are you up to this weekend? Let me know as I miss you. Peace and love, Jen
I love the visuals of your OWL. Inspiring post.
Great post. Loved the theme. Loved the pictures. Wonderful!
I love how your OLW is everywhere. You chose well. So much is connected to growth and the strength buried deep that it takes to reach.
Beautiful images of “reach”…love the serendipity of your OWL and the weekly photo challenge! Thanks so much for sharing.
The images you chose are such wonderful representations of what your OLW means to you today. I wonder how those images might evolve throughout the year?
Reaching in so many rich and wonderful ways, margaret!
Lovely to see what things you’ve found to capture for ‘reach’, Margaret. We’ve had such warm weather that we fear the trees will be getting the wrong message. I love hearing that you’ve finished another shawl for someone.
Love the tree picture! Most trees around here are still reaching with bare branches. Looking forward to the green.
Beautiful prayer shawl, too… I think it is the smile of the wearer.
What a wonderful way to keep your OLW alive and living it. I should start knitting/crocheting prayer shawls instead of scarves.
Your prayer shawl is so beautiful! And that tree! As you know, my view is a little different 🙂 Keep reaching, Margaret!
This is so inspirational. You have a good word and found it in so many ways. This word was woven into a conversation I had today with a fellow coach today at school. :-). That live oak is magnificent!.
[…] is “reach” and she shares what things are reaching in her world in this post, “Reaching.” Even if you haven’t chosen a OLW for 2015 you can reach a little farther into your […]
Great word–I have been reaching out to others this year, and also reaching towards a new future. That shawl is beautiful, and what a comfort to be able to offer another person.
