I'm calling this collection of words and scraps "self-talk". Each day, since the new year began, I ask myself what thought do I need to hold on to? A little morning pep talk, of sorts, a wanting to claim the words and fasten them into my being. It's especially good on those days when feelings are full of smallness and nevers. This cloth is not as pretty and flowing as the "2013" piece, and that's ok, it's got a job to do.
