Literally, wherever it leads you to write is wonderful, and perfect, and worthy of sharing! Share, share, share! Let yourself be inspired each week at That’s What She Said! Write on!!
- #1 rule: Have fun and be creative ♡
- Go find out what she said. Check out the other blogs linked up and show them some love.
- Don’t hold back! We want to read what you are writing.
- Okay, we do ask you to hold back ONLY if you are NOT following the rules. This link-up is for those who are inspired by the quote of the week. Get inspired!
- Not a rule but a suggestion… please share That’s What She Said on your social media. Example: Join @Mrs_AOK & @Courtneynoel Tuesday’s for #TWSS a weekly link-up inspired by women’s words.
Thanks for sharing your quotes with us last week! 😉 Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.
Maybe.
But maybe those bits of our past make us who we are today…
Maybe
we wouldn’t be here without there
But maybe
we’re better today
Maybe
letting go of the things that made us weak, sad, or fearful were the anchors
Maybe
you were you all along, and
maybe
you’re stronger than you ever knew.
Maybe
just maybe… letting go of you would be wrong.
Maybe
believing in you is what you needed all along.
Maybe.
***
And maybe this post is short, but maybe I still took the time to do what I love.
I’m a better me today for stopping and doing the things I love.
Writing is one of those things.
Keep writing and creating, friends!
Keep believing in you, because I do 🙂

Speaking of believing… I couldn’t believe the words that came out of Kelly O’s mouth and wrote about it here.
ANNOUNCEMENT
It’s not you, it’s me… That’s What She Said. Okay, seriously… we have a few adventures coming up, and since we want to give our full attention to TWSS we are taking a break. I am moving across the country with my family, and with that, I’m not sure when I will be settled in. I hope you will keep writing! The two of us cannot wait to get back into a groove with you 😉 #TWSS. We will return in September.
When we return Julia Child is our muse 🙂

August 11, 2015 at 11:13 amI love this! Mostly because (shockingly I know), I completely agree. Are you surprised?? I am a firm believer in every choice you make; even those that are seemingly small can change your life. Thanks for keeping it real! XO

August 13, 2015 at 10:38 amWow I didn’t realize that’s what Kelly Osborne said! I heard her name thrown around and I wasn’t sure what the hubbub was about but holy cow! That is so insanely wrong on so many levels. Sadly it’s one of those comments where she thinks she’s doing good but it comes out so, so ignorant. It’s what people say when they don’t understand the full picture and the implications of their words. My husband and sons are Mexican and I would be crushed if my little ones heard this.
What that outta the way, lol, good luck with the move! I hope all goes well 🙂

August 13, 2015 at 12:21 pm“I’m a better me today for stopping and doing the things I love.” Beautifully put! A lovely post, and I’m glad you took the time to write it despite everything you have going on. Good luck with your big move, lady! Can’t wait to see what this next adventure brings. And now I’m off to read that post about what Kelly Osbourne said…

August 17, 2015 at 7:47 amwhat a great quote and post. It’s a fine line to get rid of your past, because it IS what made you who you are today. Maybe letting go of the hold or power it has on you, but cherish the journey.

August 17, 2015 at 3:25 pmHello! I like last week’s quote. It really made me think. Your post was right on too. The new quote by Julia Child is very interesting. One of the biggest problems that people who are good at a lot of things, is focusing on one thing and staying excited and consistent with it until it becomes something great. 😀
