Making cobbler, jam, and syrup. Lot's of sugar and love.

Beautiful. The sting of disappointment can also turn into “how can I do the thing anyway?” Can you do some peer mentoring with fellow writers? Or approach someone whose writing you admire and ask if they’d mentor you? I like flipping things. I often think about who it is that chooses who gets in and who doesn’t. That someone has to miss out and the decision making processes involved.

I love your beautiful photos. Snippets of your life and thoughts ❤️

Sometimes the universe has bigger plans for us than we have for ourselves. Trust her and you may find the door you labeled disappointment says opportunity on the other side.
