I saw this beautiful piece of artwork on Pinterest. It was titled “Advice from a Tree.” This advice is so wise that I felt the need to share it with you. Have a great day!
Take Chances, Live Life, Regret Nothing
In working on this past weekend’s post – “My Week in Pins” – I came across this pin and I found it extremely inspiring and thought-provoking. So I thought I’d pass it along. Maybe it will light a fire under your caboose and encourage you to take chances, life life, and regret nothing! There are 17 short sentences in this quote. 1. Take chances.

This was the second short story I wrote, which was based on a writing prompt from Writer’s Digest (I think).
