druga szesnaście

"Trzeba przeżyć wszystko, co jest nam dane. Całą radość i cały smutek. Nie wolno nam się od tego uchylić. Nieprzeżyty smutek, przed którym uciekliśmy i tak kiedyś nas dopadnie."

/Hanna Krall/

"We need to live everything that is given to us. All the joy and the sorrow. We mustn't evade. The unlived sorrow that we keep running away from one day will get us anyway."

/Hanna Krall/

moja poprzednia mini książeczka spotkała się z tak przemiłym przyjęciem, że postanowiłam zrobić następną i znowu się z wami podzielić. jeśli ktoś więc miałby ochotę na to maleństwo (10x10 cm.) proszę się zgłosić w komentarzach. nie trzeba mieć bloga, nie trzeba mnie obserwować, nie trzeba reklamować.

21 lipca ogłoszę do kogo poleci ten zbiór "emocjonalnych" cytatów.

książeczkę zainspirował temat "Emocje" na Craft Artwork. papiery to cudowny Wonderland.

czy pozwalacie sobie na radość? a na zmęczenie? czasem trzeba przestać się szarpać i przyjąć to, co do nas przychodzi.

there were so many lovely words about my last mini book that I decided to create another one and if you feel like having it at home, just say so in your comment. you don't need to have a blog or follow me or advertise my blog on facebook. no strings attached - one comment is enough. I'll announce the winner July 21st. + I will add translation of course. :)

this mini book (10x10 cm.) was inspired by a challenge on Craft Artwork (it's a Polish blog that focuses on small forms like inchies, atcs, tags, etc). girls asked us to create a mini book about Emotions. I used gorgeous Wonderland paper.

the title of my quote book (as seen above) is: "Let Yourself". do you give yourself permission to feel joy? or fatigue? sometimes we need to stop resisting and welcome all the feelings we have.
