I have visited a number of Festival contributors and have to say that my day has been made better through these travels. If you have some time, I highly recommend the festival tour.

Not long ago I was lead to the Joy Rebel (with a name like that, how could I not check it out?) ... anyway, I've been visiting fairly often and have decided that I, too, am a Joy Rebel. Big surprise, right? If you'd like to learn more about the "army", please visit THIS post - it's worth your time.
All this leads to today's mission Monday ... 10 Commandments ... the whole scoop is HERE. I have to admit that after reading Brandi's, it's hard to not want to adopt all 10 of hers, but I have a feeling that if I let it, my own 10 Commandments will simply fall into place.

Your post today gave me chill bumps...the good kind! How touching both pieces were! :)
I will be happy to trade with you whenever you are ready...Just let me know! :) LOL :)
Oh my gosh! Your haiku/s (is that yours at the bottom of your post too?) and 10 commandments fill the soul and lift me up! Lovely-you, thank you!
I like the 10 Commandments, and I like the bottom haiku, which I'm hoping is also yours so you won't be insulted, maybe. The waterfall picture is great too.
Michelle, BEautiful Haiku..really! AND I whole heartedly agree with your 10 commandments.

Wow, look at you! These are great haikus!
Thanks for the head's up on this festival going around. I've seen a few this morning, too. Just catching up with my blogs, and I bet I find more! Haikus are fun and impactful in their brevity.
You are definitely a Joy Rebel.

Michelle, your post was great, I'm a little behind in my blog visiting forgive me, turning inward a bit. Times are worrisome, I need to get out of this slump, thanks for the help! You always make me smile!

Hey Michelle!
Your photo is a Haiku-for-the-eyes... no words needed. Then there is the actual poem, so fitting and perfect.
I like your list of commandments as well: words to live by for sure.
Hugs,
Kate
Very touching and beautiful - all of it!
your words...haiku, poem, list and all...touch my heart and soul.
when i can see very little beauty or warmth around me, i can come here...and all will be okay.
Your commandments should be adopted by us all...this world would be a better place if we did.
Great haiku, Michelle!
I like your commandments..they are simple,positive and really if followed, you need no others.Everything falls into place:)
Here's to a wonderful and creative week ahead!
