Hello Beautiful Souls 💜 Happy Celebrations in however you celebrate and where. You're supported & loved here. I love seeing different traditions, cultures, posts, pictures and so much more from around the world.
Also love meeting so many on the social media's I'm on as well as my Husband Tarl.
We're doing great here. I've overcame the bug, fever and enjoying 3 weeks off of school. Tarl is enjoying his time off from work for few days and working on more creative projects and graphic novel.
We've enjoyed serving some, helping few for Christmas and going out and enjoying the Texas cold and little shopping . We have a circut machine so we're excited to use for the new year for our little gift shop ( between his work and my 5 classes ( 18 credits) but we'll. make time for creativity and of course our marriage. That's important.
Speaking of New Year I had some thoughts I wanted to share . Making it a better year to come. Challenges come but you do overcome. Support each other and find yourself loving you as you transform to a better work in progress soul even with challenges, flaws, scars and more. You're enough and worth it and more.
So, don't put so much pressure on trying to make you into someone better. Just take it one step and day. Enjoy your journey and love yourself through all transformations, especially ones that are so challenging or unexpected. You're more than enough and it's a learning experience. Work in progress for us all everyday and year.
I agree that it's important to try to make each year better than the last and to focus on self-improvement. It's also important to be kind to ourselves and to remember that we are all human and have flaws and imperfections.
It can be helpful to try to overcome challenges and to seek support from others when we need it. It's also important to practice self-love and to remember that we are worthy and deserving of love and respect, despite any challenges or flaws we may have. It's okay to not be perfect and to make mistakes. The important thing is to try to learn from those mistakes and to keep working towards being the best version of ourselves that we can be.
Wishing you all a wonderful and happy Celebrations and New Year to come. Thank you for your support in helping growing a little dream. Look forward to expanding our horizons and bringing more inspiration and creativeness in the New Year.
Lots of love
Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️

"You're Not Alone "by Jackie Telford 2022
Newest wood art piece. One challenge I completed.
I've always been real on my Feelings. Usually I Express in an artistic way or words. I'm coming close to 4 weeks left of fall semester. I then just have 2 semesters left till graduation. Been a long journey.
The thing is I've always kept going in anything and did my best and even when things or people literally wanted to be rid of me. When adversary tries or thinks he has won. I come back even stronger.
You see I love my life and my amazing journey with Tarl . I am grateful in all circumstances. But sometimes things get so overwhelming and challenging 😪 like school and big project coming up. Also the many specialists I see, off meds for diabetes then try this , off 2 insulin then back on with mix.
My rheumatoid arthritis and Oestoarthritis with horrible flareups especially weather changes it hurts. I'm 39 and I have had over 12 surgeries, tons of procedures, tests, medicines, and other challenges. I hurt . I cry. I push to get out of bed at times. It comes and goes. There's no exaggerating. It's exhausting.
Tarl sees its and I love he can hug and pray for me or bless me. I am safe with him. And it helps me know how blessed I am despite my trials. I have my special person.
But he can't take away my pain, my challenges or overwhelming situations in school or life. He is there. Just as our Savior. I pray for angels just as he was in Gethsemane being strengthened. We're not alone.
Lyrics I've written 🎶🎶🎶
I just ask that we show each of our family members near and far or those friends or family we haven't spoken to , show more compassion and love. More communication and empathy. Even those in community, church, neighbors, strangers around the world.
Not just when disasters or trauma or holidays. Everyone hurts. Everyone sins. Everyone has needs and challenges. Just love not judge. Please. Please look after yourselves, family and love ones. Because we all need that light within us to shine and definitely the saviors love which comes from all . Especially when you've had enough and feel helpless.
Share goodness. Mourn with others. Love one another. Help one another. Treat one another . Forgive one another. Care for one another.
Be there for each other. Near or far. Surprise. Text. Vist. Gift. Love. Hug. Pray. Each day . Show support and let others know you're there and they are important. ( Not just holidays)
I could use prayers of strength too. 💜

My husband is Tarl Telford. He is a technical writer by day and in the evenings and weekends we work on creative projects together or individually. He and I make sure we have communication and eat meals together.
Click here 💜
Since I am a full-time student online and he works from home , we still make sure there are times to talk on breaks, lunches and if there are meetings or groups, post-it-notes and texts are great 💜
Tarl is 46 and is oldest of 9. I am 39 and I have 12 other siblings. I'm down at the bottom of the age group. Lol. Anyways, he's my rock, creative partner, amazing and talented husband and best friend.
Tarl has created The Hidden History of Oz series. Below is picture of his books. He self-publishes and does all the covers as well. Also he has and continues to uses all tools and resources to help him work on his first graphic novel.
Along with being an author, artist, illustrator and more, we find our love through music and he helps me with my stage fright . We have added books of his to our book shop which has been a dream growing up for me to have a Novelty book shop and store full of creative, inspiring, and uplifting items with talents and passions of mine. I'm grateful to add in Tarl's work and passions as well. Together we support and help make our dreams come alive.
We make a good team. As the blog and store is a continued work in progress , we've created his own little home page . Added coloring books he's done, of course his books, journals and more items he is helping me with will be added. So if you see something that says Tarl Creates or Tarl Telford...That's my husband:)
We work together well. We know when we need us time. We know when we need "me time" and try to use our time wisely on earth. Our Testimony, education, skills, service, gospel of Jesus Christ, talents, unconditional love, Christ centered home are just some of the important pieces in our home and relationships. Communication and supporting each other's passions and talents is so important. Respect and having compassion and empathy for each other and those around the world.
I love Tarl so much. He and i arw grateful for what we do have. We look forward to growing together and this dream of ours. Grateful for all supporters and those helping us get the tools and inventory needed to keep building.
We have so much fun together even if it's just a nice drive, going to grocery store, making creative projects, him working and I doing school, reading, watching a movie, dancing in the kitchen or cooking together. He's an Intj and I'm an infj. We're both empaths.. We love to help and support and bring inspiring and fun content in the world. Love supporting others in their dreams, desires and talents .
Enjoy the fun updates . Continue to follow our journey . Create your happiness in your life and with those around you. Always make time for those things that are important to you, including yourself.
Lots of love .. Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️
