Chocolate Affaire...

Today, I attended the Glendale Chocolate Affaire with my sister. We do a lot of fun things together, and I look forward to doing this one again.

I attended Deena Remiel's workshop on self-promotion. She is amazing!

Jimmy Thomas, the model and owner of Romance Novel Covers.com, was also there to take pictures with anyone who wanted one. A truly gorgeous man, from the inside out.

What did I learn?

I am more terrified than I ever imagined.

More questions than I could possibly answer have flown through my mind.

From birth, I was taught I was worthless. I'm struggling to unlearn the brutal lessons. Some days, I do well. Other days, I slip into the old beliefs.

The one time I always feel right with God is when I'm writing, so I'm going to post this (me admitting being Christian isn't easy), and delve into today's assignment for myself (me clinging to hope).

  1. What you said about slipping and forgetting that you (and all women) are worth more then we realize, that's when I find it nice to remember such things like in the RS Motto (or whatever it's called) where it states that "Our lives have Meaning, Purpose, and Direction". I just remember that when I was teaching this to my girls, it really made me feel like "if this is true for every women then it must mean that I'm important".

    This helped me when I have having a really down time.

  2. Sounds like a lot of good things going. We learned that good can be scary. Cheers.
