Insights into the writing life of an exhausted mom of four 8 and under.

Hey! You! Yeah, you! Could you bring this momma some coffee? *Laugh*

I'll be sharing my struggles and triumphs as I try to pin down inspiration while juggling an 8 year old, 6 year old, 5 year old, and 5 month old (oh, and also navigating my chronic illness). There'll be lots of humor, probably more than a little complaining, and just all around good times.

I hope you'll come along for the journey! (Don't forget the coffee; I'm serious about that! *Coffee*)

This is my first time joining the "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's ParadiseOpen in new Window. prompts!

Prompt: Learning Wisdom
"By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest."
Confucius
What do you think of this quote and what is your method of learning wisdom?


My usual method of learning wisdom is the third: experience. I am someone who has to learn things the hard way most of the time. On a few instances I've imitated (followed the advice of others) and gotten good results, but most often I have to experience the pros and cons for myself for it to stick. Lately, as I've gotten older, I've reflected more on my life, what I want from it, and what actually makes me happy. I think that's a great way to learn what works for you. I think the quote is spot on.
