Surprised? Me too! I just received a message telling me that Bella Grace Magazine’s blog Grace Notes picked up a piece of mine that I’ve been wanting to share with everyone for some time, Boxes Because. From a trunk of letters to a tiny box only big enough to hold a secret, you never know what delight they’ll hold. I hope that you click on the link and respond what “fills” you. In the mean time, I’m going to be trying something for the first time!
Brian Tracy once said, “You can only grow if you’re willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.” I’m heeding this advice by feeling very awkward, and uncomfortable! Below is my first VLOG! A video-blog snippet. It’s only one minute, but it is a start. Remember that boxes are only beautiful when you are filling them – not trying to fit into them.
Can’t wait to hear from you.

Great job Elle. You have a lovely voice and you speak very well.
Ha ha! SO out of my comfort zone!
Never would know it Elle. You looked and sounded so at ease.
Oh my gosh!!! I have been gone and I read this beautiful story of boxes but I am sorry to say I was in a hurry to run my photography to the fair. The story was quickly read and placed back in the box of my email, I will visit it later. Then this beautiful message from you appears, your vlog was the sharing of your boxes. We place ourselves in boxes much like a bird cage, shutting ourselves inside. I didn’t even read who wrote it, I should have known it was your loving words coaxing us from our boxes. Very well written and thank you for the prompt for boxes. Love this!!
Oh! How awesome is that! You are such a doll for telling me that I made a difference in your day! I love your analogy to birdcages. It makes me think of Maya Angelou.
Memories fill my box!! Ever since I hit this years birthday, I have realized that at the end of a day, memories are what I hold dear. They are the key to my heart. Thankful for my box. Well written friend, love this article!!❤
Thank you dearest!!!
Love… thank you… 💗
Thank you for loving it! I cherish feedback!
