If I were ever in a beauty pageant, my answer to the golden question wouldn't be 'world peace' but something like 'ummmm I'd like for every person to know just how gosh dang important they are!' [I'm sure the judges would be super impressed with my eloquent speech ;) ] But truly and honestly I wish people knew it. So, what does that have to do with this month's kit? Everything. It was created with you, and your story in mind. It isn't always the grand events that shape who we are, but the little details of our lives as they are right. now. You and your story are important!
This month I have challenged myself to use the 'I am...' kit to create a few pages that are just about me. How I'm feeling, what I am experiencing or think about my life right. now. Here's my first page. The title "I am learning to love me. It's a process, not a destination" I have always had expectations of what my life would look like right now. About the only thing that looks as I expected is my age. In the past, and even now sometimes I've been hard on myself for not meeting or living up to my own expectations. When I stop and look at where I am though, challenges I've overcome, things I'm working on and accomplishing today, I realize that they aren't any less awesome than the ideal I had painted in my mind all along. Just different. With that realization, as I change and overcome challenges, I am learning to love me and my life right. now.
So, here is your challenge for the week. Create a page { layout, planner page, journal etc ] about YOU that has 'I am..." in the title. [ the stamp set in this month's kit will come in handy! ] Come back and leave a comment with a link to your layout, or #FJChallenge on Instagram so everyone can see and be inspired!
I am excited to learn more about you!

This was fun! I used things from a past kit since I don’t have the I AM kit yet. To see mine go to my FB page at www.facebook.com/jenharkema. It was so fun, thanks for the challenge. :)
I saw this and I just had to play along. I do not have your kit as I just recently discovered your club but pulled what I had from my stash that was similar colours (as I LOVE) and played along. I hope that is okay. http://scrapsbyjen.blogspot.ca/2015/06/i-am.html
Couldn’t believe it was so hard to dig deep on myself for this seemingly easy personal challenge. I spend most of my time documenting everyone else’s life in pictures so I felt like a guest on Oprah with all the internal turmoil. Here goes. http://krodesigns.blogspot.com/2015/06/i-am.html
