Spirit

Spirit
3"x5"

When I think of spirit my first thought is high school cheer leading.  "We've got spirit, yes we do.  We've got spirit.  How 'bout you?" No, I wasn't a cheerleader--more of a goofy nerd who was just trying to find her way like everyone else.  But that wasn't what I was aiming for with this little quilt.  Instead, I meant the spirit inside that longs to fly with grace and beauty.  Sometimes I'm not sure if I've really come that far from those days longer ago than I really want to admit.  Other times, I feel much more confident with myself.  But most of the time, I think, I'm just too busy to worry about it much.  For now I will just ride this roller coaster and pray the screams are for joy.
