Music is such a daily part of life in our home.
Whether it is coming from our phone, MP3 player, computer, turntable or CD player…music fills our home.
I shared this song the last week of my The Journey of Letting Go {creating beauty from ashes} course and after talking to a friend today I wanted to share it with all of you.
You are loved.
So, so loved.
“Loved” by JJ Heller
(Verse)
Do you dream of a home you never had?
An innocence that you cannot get back
The pain is real, you can’t erase it
Sooner or later you have to face it down, down
You have to face it down
You are loved
(Verse)
Do you keep your thoughts inside your head?
Do you regret the things you never said
You have a voice, you have to use it
You have a choice, don’t let them shut you down, down
Don’t let them shut you down
You are loved
You are loved
(Verse)
Do you feel the ache inside your soul?
You know you’ll never make it on your own
Sorrow is too great for you to hold it
You’re gonna break, why don’t you lay it down?
(Bridge)
Freedom comes in letting go
Open up the window to your heart
Freedom comes in letting go
Open up your heart
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved
You are loved

We have had some good discussions in our house about this…
I loved it!

I also wanted to let you all know that I just added a new print to the shop!
I hope you love it.
It is printed on the most gorgeous watercolor paper. It is almost like getting the original.

I am waiting for it to be cool enough to make this amazing looking soup from My Sweet Savannah…

If you have had a bad day…
If you are on Pinterest I would love to have you checkout what I find beautiful.
I *loved* what Ashton, I mean Chris, had to say! Our kids need to hear move of THAT!

Lovely song, beautiful art, and I can’t wait to try the soup!!
Ashton’s speech was great. Thanks for sharing it.
i love that quote. so good
Probably the smartest words ever spoken by him and at the Teen Choice Awards!
I love that quote so much!
Kateri and I adore JJHeller – that’s a great song
wonderful painting Jeanne…Kateri has learned so much through that course she took of yours…and her creativity hasn’t stopped – only increased
I’m impressed. It’s so rare to see a celebrity ‘role model’ be so authentic. And make such wonderful use of his time in front of his young, impressionable audience. Thanks for sharing this Jeanne it makes me feel so hopeful.
Oh friend. such beauty here.
My 14 yo daughter and I were fortunate enough to see Ashton’s speech in person at the Teen Choice Awards. Amazing. He was so genuine and really delivered a good message in a way that (I think) got through to the kids. The print is AMAZING!!!! So gorgeous!
