* What do you want to be known for? *

While reading Ali Edwards blogs, there was a mentioning of this site of making a list every week on a subject. 52 lists I have been sneaking around for a while, but then decided to try it along. Seems there isn't been a new list for last week, so I decided to do week 19 and who knows, I might even do the other weeks as well :)

The background is a Texture from Kim Klassen and a photo by myself.

* Heritage *

This weeks challenge is heritage. Love how this one turned out.
It's my grandma's necklace which I have been wearing for years as a good luck charm.

* A quick walk *

Confidence, red  & take heart are used for this weeks Texture Tuesday, Free and Easy Edition

This photo was taken not so long ago on a reasonable Sunny day, we haven't had many of those. So I was taking a quick walk and noticed these :)So beautiful...

* comfort *

All my life i have lived in my own comfort zone, safe. Nothing to stress me out. I felt comforted in my own house, my own life, by myself. Yet it seemed to become more of a less comforting feeling because of changes in my life. I need to go out and do things, go places, see people. Go out and about. Simply enjoying life more expresively. Stepping out of my comfort zone. Even though you want it, it is difficult to do. Yet I can pull strenght out of myself. I have done already so much out of my comfort zone. 
Specially since someone entered my life and without him knowing it, he turned it upside down. I have never been so much at ease, at comfort with myself. His present and his words and his actions have given me more confidence in myself. I am good who i am. I can do more than I think. I don't have to be negative about myself. I can find comfort in life and in other people and things around me. I just have to trust in myself. Accept myself. Be at ease with  myself and feel comfort  in my own skin and in my mind and head and thinking.
I can do it. Even if he is stepping out of my life I still need to keep that feeling of comfort being me.

* Color Pop *

This week the assignment over at texture tuesday is POP.

I used 3 textures; xanthe, paper 2, and marabella.

Loved playing along :)

* 5 min friday *

jump... i have jumped this year, i have jumped into something deeper and it became more powerful than i ever dreamed it could be. It was a big leap of faith and now i have to keep on holding tight of hopes that my jump wasnt a jump too far, too deep, so out of my reach.
Even if I will fall into a big black hole, i will never regret that i took the jump. the jump into something new, something powerfull, something called trust and love. I have learned so much about life, about me since i took that jump. not all is positive also some negative things about myself but yet i learned valuable lessons which i will carry with me the rest of my life. the positive is i learned i could do stuff i always thought i was too scared for, too shy, too afraid of me and my emotions, too afraid of the world and people who live in it who have hurt me over and over in the past. yet I took the jump and found the trust in someone else. trust and love and care and all because i took a jump i always though i would never ever take. it gives me hope and trust in the future that maybe one day i will find someone again who i can jump with...
