This time of year can be easily summed up with what kinds of books you should be reading. i.e. It’s fall witches! Time to cuddle up for spooky book season!

July #smArtist theme is #Unity! Post #art of any medium with the hashtag for the #artchallenge at any time either inspired by the monthly or daily theme, or just include a specific meaning or intention behind the art. It can be abstract, have a message, or even a goal like “focus off center”.

It took me a very long time to learn "do your best" does not mean "give 100% effort even at the expense of your physical or mental health" or "give A+ effort even when it is clearly not appreciated or valued". Sometimes doing your best is heating up a can of soup and going to bed early.
