"To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.”
-Joseph Chilton Pearce
I was very fortunate to be raised by a woman who let me color outside the lines.
She raised her daughters singing and playing the guitar to us, and always made the time to read aloud. She has a beautiful range to her voice. Her artistic talents and tastes are different than my own, but she always praises and complements every thing I do.
I remember once my daughter was coloring a coloring book picture at my father-in-law's house. As he watched her, he kept pointing out that she needed to color inside the lines. Unable to bite my lip any longer, I smiled and gently told my daughter "It is okay to color outside the lines."
I learned that from my mom.
