It Takes Courage





This is one of my latest works.  (Sorry the pictures are blurry and sideways.  My camera's not downloading right now so I took this with my phone.)

On it is a quote from e.e. cummings that I love:   
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.

What's taken courage in your journey to becoming who you really are?

  2. Oh wow! I love this :) Especially her face, adorable! It's taken courage to continue writing after getting discouraged again and again.

  3. Catherine, what a great piece. Look at you create! Courage...to put my house up for sale, to sign my life away on an RV today, to go when God says "it is time".

  5. beautiful catherine!
    i am learning to choose. i was given the analogy of having one foot on the dock and the other the boat. if i don't learn to choose than i sink.
    i have been comfortable living this way to avoid pain but really the avoidance has only caused me deeper pain.
    it is taking me courage... :) but i'm happy!
