"I learned that a moment can be an idea. That the hardest part of getting a great photo is getting past yourself. That you need a point of departure - what, exactly, are you trying to say with those words? That photo? The post? And that it’s okay not to know the answer to those questions when you put pen to paper." This is so well put. I often don't know what I want to say when I start writing, or when I start working on a recipe, but that point of departure is key! It's the spark of an idea that, if I'm willing to follow it, sometimes leads to the best places.

Thank you Rebecca! We always have to remind ourselves, don't we? 💕
