“Each of us has the opportunity to change and grow until our very last breath. Happy creating.”
–M.J. Ryan
What was the most recent thing you created?
My list:
1. A poem
2. Several digital photographs
3. A weekend schedule (do something new on Saturday, malling day on Sunday — it’s a compromise with mall-loving H)
4. Metroblogging posts
Ah, creating. I love this quote. We never really are who we are, aren’t we? We are evolving everyday. We make decisions, change our minds, turn left, go straight, cut our hair a particular style, say no, say yes, say I love you, mold this, mold that… we are creating everyday, every minute. I’m creating this post right now.
Just another reflection.
Never stifle your creativity.
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

I find it amazing how a simple change can affect a person’s whole life. Change will always be a constant factor and we just have to be careful about the changes we make.

as a designer.. i love that quote! and i live on this one too:
“creativity starts with a blank canvas.. white space, use it wisely”
if you think hard about it, the quote can apply with everything in our life – the white space is the world around us
