Everyone has a story in life


A 24 year old boy seeing out from the train’s window shouted…
“Dad, look the trees are going behind!”
Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 year old’s childish behavior with pity, suddenly he again exclaimed…
“Dad, look the clouds are running with us!”
The couple couldn’t resist and said to the old man…
“Why don’t you take your son to a good doctor?”The old man smiled and said…“I did and we are just coming from the hospital, my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today.
Every single person on the planet has a story. Don’t judge people before you truly know them. The truth might surprise you.

UPDATE YOUR CREATIONS BELOW




I'm starting things off again at Just keep on creating

Hi everyone,

I have decided to start the monthly Anything goes challenges again. I was in a really bad space when I stopped the monthly link-up's. I started this blog to keep people motivated about crafting but couldn't do that whilst I was feeling terrible about life. Now that I have left a job that drained me for 18 years and working full-time with my business I truly see the importance of staying motivated and encouraging people along the way. I hope you will all start entering your wonderful creations again and I promise that this time I will be a much better host on this blog. I have deleted all the previous posts as I want a fresh beginning on this blog, I want to go forward with this blog and not be reminded about all the mistakes I made before, I hope you all understand.
