secret dream for IF and "red"


















Rejection is what you make it. You can let it defeat you; you can use it to sow the seeds of bitterness, hatred, revenge and destruction, or you can use it to nurture a secret dream that will one day blossom. You can let it kill you, or you can let it make you stronger. The choice is yours.

Tammy, I love that you used seeds for your illo. It's such an easy concept and is so effective!!

Your advice about using rejections are very wise, I think. I'll try to use it next time - but it's mostly more difficult in the situation.. Nice drawing too.

VERY cool!
