Jacqueline and I invite you to join in on our blogging event called The Writer’s Quote Challenge.

Here is my offering for this week:

“Our destiny is not written for us but by us.”
― Barack Obama

ALL IS NOT LOST

On a grey January day, a small leaf clung to a might oak.  I don’t want to leave you cried the leaf.  The day is dark and cold.  Fear has gripped me in his icy hand.

The mighty oak said quietly, change must come my dear little leaf.  Do not fear it.  Each leaf remembers the spring and summer with gladness.  Each leaf revels in the magnificence of autumn.    And each leaf fears winter.

For now dear little leaf it seems all is lost.  But the destiny of spring and renewal is in our life source and will be written by us again.

We are continuing the same format and here that is: there are no rules to follow. Either make up your own sayings  or use a quote from a famous author that you find gives you inspiration.

Each Thursday, we will post the prompt and all you have to do is participate!

On your own blog post do a pingback to this post and make sure to “like” or “comment” on everyone else’s post. A pingback is when you embed (or copy) the URL of my weekly prompt into your own blog post.

Make sure to check our weekly prompt to see if your entry is there. You can copy URL of your blog post and include it in the comments section of my original weekly prompt if that works better for you.

Copy the badge above and include it on your own post. Tag your post on your own blog as “The Writer’s Quote Challenge,” so we can find the posts in the reader.

Next week Jacqueline and I are welcoming Joan from Family, Parenting and Beyond to hosting the Writer’s Quote Challenge with us.  But, we are still looking for more hosts to join in the fun.  So if you would like to pick up the challenge of hosting, just let one of us know.

I can’t wait to read your posts,
