This evening I am sharing my take on the challenge over at Challenge yourself which is......
The quote I have chosen is one from a movie I love "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel " and the quote is ~
"Everything will be alright in the end so if it is not alright it is not the end "
I chose a photo of my bestfriend and myself as we have said this a few times to ourselves and each other over the last few years. If not these exact words then things that basically mean the same. I know I say it to myself.
Unfortunately in 2008 when we were about to embark on a trip of a lifetime together with our husbands, we recieved some news that was not great and has impacted on our lives till this day. But we know that there is much worse that can happen and we will get through , it just means we are not where we thought we would be in our life and life is a little harder. But hey we have beautiful healthy children and our health is reasonably good (apart from old age ) so everything will be alright in the end.
I really loved the image of the girl with the suitcase ( it is from a Daphne's Diary magazine) so I wanted to use it on the layout
One of my pen pals sent me the gorgeous image of the three little boys and I decided to make a Christmas Card with it, so I thought I would share it with you also..
Thank You for calling by and I really do appreciate any comments and remember everything will be all right in the end so if its not alright it is not the end x
Love, Peace and Kindness
