wing flappin' 101

it seems a lot of my blogging buddies are in need of a little wing flappin' to lift their spirits.  some are wracked with self-doubt, some have not great things happening in their lives, and some well, to put it frankly are just having a crappy little summer.

so, i'm asking my blogging community to lend a hand and assisting these tired, weighed down angels a little assistance with flappin' their wings.

*ahem*  lordy, is that some cheese or what?  yeah, well. it was a poor attempt to gather some laughs on a very serious subject.  it seems that august is wearing a lot of my someones down.  one of my greatest lessons about blogging is that if you're feeling that way - odds are there are a lot of other people are feeling the same - doubting themselves, worrying about sick family members, about money or jobs or children or...you get the drill.  the thing is though i might feel alone, i'm not.  all of you have felt these things at one time or another. 

i keep by my desk a quote - "what would you do, if you knew you could not fail?"  so....what would you do?  how high could you reach - how self-confident could you be - what beauty could you share?  stand in front of the mirror and ask yourself that question.  you might be surprised at the answer.

and today....if you feel especially confident - make sure you engage in a little support for those that might be limping along today.  i'm sure they will return the favor for you just when you need it the most.
