Why I'm Always Creating Something..

           I made a decision awhile back to be a major online presence. I would have a Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, a blog, a podcast, and an Instagram. You name any social media and I would be there. I wanted to be known, to make a mark on the world! I would write poems and short stories to start. Then fantasy novels. People knew the names J.R.R. Martin, J.K. Rowling, and J.R.R. Tolkien. (Humm, maybe I need to start doing my name like S.L. McCaskill!) People would know my name. People would escape the cruelty of their daily lives and find hope and wonder inside the world I would create in their minds. That was, is, has always been, and will always be my dream!
            So I am always writing, filming, singing, and creating! Stories burst out of me and I rush to get them wrote down before they fade.  But for years now one story has been growing inside me. I think of it whenever I can daydream, as I drift to sleep, and whenever I am inspired by something. It was a way to comfort myself and escape the stress of life. But I recently decided that I had to get it out of my head and share it. That it was there because I was meant to share it.
          I use a Happy Planner to plan my life and track my son's development! It is beautiful! I love the act of planning in something pretty! It restores my soul and gives me peace! Of course, it also inspired em to start making my own customized and designed stickers!
          In high school I learned how to sew and quilt. I made a quilted baby blanket that I was SO proud of for my cousin! That sparked my interested and all I wanted to do was create quilts!
          In high school I took art and fell in love! I am always doodling and drawing and even painting or using pastels! It is amazing to watch my vision come to life!
          So why am I always creating something? Why did I want so badly to be known? Simple, while there is some pride in creating, the real reason is giving. I love to give people gifts. Especially ones I know they will love! Even more sop if they are BIG! Drawings, stickers, quilts, and stories are all me trying to give something of lasting value to the world! Something that they will treasure! That is why I am always creating!
