I would be lying Benchmark

Ok... you KNOW you have been there..

Watching your girlfriend cry.. explaining how upset she is.. and you don't know how to help but your heart goes out to her. You would do whatever it took to make it better, if you only knew how to..

We always say "I understand" when we're trying to comfort them but 9 times out of 10.. we don't REALLY understand.. it's not the same EXACT situation.. But we can empathize.. and we do... all the time

This.. is my response to that moment. I know I have been there.. many times.. on both sides of this coin.

This is a response to my MANY girlfriends in my life who I KNEW I met them before.. the first time I met them... and when I look in the mirror.. they have made me who I am today!

You feel alone Benchmark

This is my first card...

an answer of sorts to a time when I was unemployed and feeling very lost. Answering myself...

We all go through these times...

And hopefully this will help someone (maybe yourself) NOT feel like you are going through this alone...

Because we're not.... alone that is.

Ok.. so we all have our dreams.. I know I do... seeing these cards is my dream!

And sometimes we need a little of encouragement to make our dreams a reality. It takes work... sometimes compromise.. but it's worth it.. YOU are worth it!!!

For someone (maybe yourself) as a reminder to Shoot for the Stars!!!!

So much myself Benchmark

I read this GREAT quote in Oprahs magazine by the great Martha Beck and It's been in my head ever since. I thought I would use it on a card.. because it is SO true.

The trick is to ask yourself..

What am I doing when I am "so much myself"? And then go out and do that!
