I do think that sometimes others ask us to do things and do not realize our stress level or other obligations and that when people or organizations ask for our time or money that we can't give without shorting ourselves or our families we can say no.Susan G.

I think the author had some good advice about setting boundaries for ourselves and not losing ourself in one aspect of our world. For example, someone in the church once said women can only be moms for a certain period of time because God has other things for them to do as well. Thought provoking to say the least.Terri Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06905158157291602809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723124266752750306.post-28353616000122570502011-04-20T04:30:56.663-07:002011-04-20T04:30:56.663-07:00Great post :-) I especially like the bit about ser...Great post :-) I especially like the bit about service and how you try to figure out how to get your character to be as free spirited as your five-year-old. I often spend time observing characteristics in my kids and seeing how they translate into characters in my books. I don't think being a mom holds back my creative process, but it emboldens it and gives me more to draw from.GoofyJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15183255762045210700noreply@blogger.com
