I don’t usually do these challenge things, but when Steve nominated me, I couldn’t resist.  Steve is just a super cool, inspiring, smart, no bullshit guy, and I adore him!  Follow the link above and check out his incredible blog! Thank you Steve for selecting me to participate in this challenge.

Here’s how this thing works:

1. Thank the person that nominated you.

2. Write one quote each day for three consecutive days (3 quotes total)

3. Explain why the quote is meaningful for you.

4. Nominate three bloggers each day to participate in the challenge

It is still Poetry Month, so a great opportunity to offer up some more wonderful words from poets!

“Perhaps some day I’ll crawl back home, beaten, defeated. But not as long as I can make stories out of my heartbreak, beauty out of sorrow.”
~Sylvia Plath

I pretty much love everything that Sylvia Plath wrote, but this quote is especially meaningful because I feel it defines a lot of my own feelings about being a writer and what I strive to do with my writing.

If they would like to participate, I would love to read some quotes that inspire or excite or have meaning for:

Bojana, because she teaches me something with every word she writes and I know she will offer sublime inspiration from the words that inspire her.

Wulf, because his wisdom holds a constant and beautiful light, and we all need some Wulf  in our lives.

Tanya, because there is a light inside of her that reaches every soul she touches, through her writing and her immense heart.  I know that whatever she shares will find a place in all of our hearts, and stay there forever.
