Sunday Sayings

Today is national sister's day, so I wanted to share a quote about sisters (since I've got one of those).

Sunday Sayings

Can we please just take a minute to appreciate how amazing Sing Street  is? I just watched it again, and I think it is the best movie ever! It is so heartfelt, funny, weird, sad, and wonderful. The music is downright amazing! The characters just capture your heart. I could watch it on repeat. I always feel so inspired by the brotherly love, and the idea of chasing your dreams and being an artist.  There are so many great lines in that movie, but following that thought I have chosen this one: Isn't it so fulfilling to create? Makes me want to spend every day writing my books and coming up with new ideas. Never give up on your dreams, my friends! Use the gifts God has given you; follow the Creator's example and create!

Starting in a new positions at my job, I have to admit that I've been feeling pretty co rodent about it. It seemed simple enough. And then I hit an unexpected snag. I can across some problems that I didn't know how to solve because I've never experienced them before. And I admit that when I saw the first problem I started to panic a bit.

Plus I'm still very new at this job, so no one will be expecting me to be perfect yet. If the fault is mine, they'll tell me what I've done wrong and hopefully I won't do it again. But I choose to see this as a learning experience, a small wave on an otherwise calm sea that has already passed me by. It won't stop me from enjoying life if I just let it go. This doesn't affect any of the important things in life.

Aside from having my favourite cover in the whole series, The Kingmaker's Daughter  provides an alternate interpretation of many of the events in The White Queen , this time told by the young Anne Neville. Despite her opposition to Elizabeth, Anne was a character I liked (perhaps because of the tv show more than the other novel). She was not her daddy's chosen one or the court favourite, and she never expected to be queen, but she was strong and reasonable. Her fight was always quiet and solitary, yet she stood by her sister through all of the hardships that Lord Warwick forced upon them. She was loyal to her family no matter how they treated her. Anne was a pawn in everyone else's game and yet she remained steadfast in her belief that she could be more than the silly girl that others saw her as. Unfortunately, I'm not sure this portrayal of her totally did her justice. Yes, she was all of the things I just said. Yet she was also paranoid and easily persuaded, whic...
