Here’s one of the many e-mails I get daily. This special readers message touched me. I thought I’d share it with you:

  Your blog is awesome!! Not only do you show us how to pair bargains with high end trends=totally ‘my’ look, but the thoughts you leave us with are inspiring and uplifting, to say the least!  Your smile seems to jump right out of the picture…the genuine side of you comes shining through.  I’ve just read your entire blog (it took some hours, but they seemed to fly right by!) and I feel a warmth…a sincere feeling that comes from one who not only leaves you with beautiful images and ideas, but thoughts of contentment and well being as well.  You are truly blessed, and a genuine blessing to others.  In just a span of hours, I have come to appreciate and treasure this blog SO MUCH!  You are a true inspiration to others.  I leave you with this thought:  You give so much of yourself without losing yourself, and that is the beginning of being a blessing.  So many times we as women either refuse or can’t share ourselves with others, because we feel we’ll lose a little of ourselves in the process.  But those that have so much God given talent understand to give of themselves causes blessings to come right back.  May God continue to bless you and your family, may He smile upon your dreams, and give you strength and courage to continue to share yourself with others that appreciate what you do.  God bless you!

I cried:)… I cried because I have never met this person, I’ve never done anything personally for this person. I’ve done so much more for others and I’ve never even gotten a thank you. I have to suck it up and keep on doing me and never let that change me, because who I am (although I’ve made my mistakes and I’m far from perfect) changes peoples lives…

Tip of the day: Never stop being YOU!
