a gift for you

I’m a low-key, no-frills, hassle-free holiday type of woman. I’m happiest creating so that’s what I’ve been doing this holiday season while everyone else hustles and bustles. But I do have a gift for all of you! A thank you for playing along in my giveaway last week (the comments gave me lots of ideas for my Etsy shop); a ‘happy holidays no matter what you celebrate…I’m celebrating YOU’ kind of gift.

Rainer Maria Rilke’s Letter to a Young Poet is one of my favorite books. There are many passages that move me to tears, to a place of comfort, to a state of mind that allows me to take a deep breath no matter what is going on in the world. I took one of my favorite passages and created a collage sheet just for you!
Rilke: Love The Questions {Collage Sheet in PDF* Format}
This little present includes the sheet of quotes/sentences you see above, the same sheet in reverse (for easy image transfers) and one page of the excerpt alone, framed for your viewing pleasure. I hope it brings you many hours of art-making joy!
*The PDF is a large file (so that you can print it with no problem).
Oooooh….! Wonderful, Susan!!
Lots of great wisdom there.
And thank you for making it easy for us with the reverse print, too.
You are a definite art-from-the-heart kind of gifter. Thanks for all you’ve added to my daily life since I found your blog.
May the happiness of every holiday light your winter nights and the new year!

Thank you for the beautiful words. Your website has given me many hours of pleasure. Many wishes for a joyful and peaceful new year.
Love the Font for Love the Question !!!!
Susan,
Thank you for your generosity. The quote is lovely. Now to contemplate how these words will manifest themselves into a new piece of art.
Many blessings to you for a wonderful New Year.

Thank you Susan, this is totally awesome and I will use it. I promise!

What a fabulous gift!
One hopes you realize how much you bring to so many!
My day seems incomplete if I do not check out what you have given us that day!
You are inspiring and may you have a wonderful holiday!
Letters to a Young Poet is one of the books I gave my husband. He is a romantic and I knew that the book would appeal to him. To have some of the quotes from it on a transfer sheet is fabulous! Thanks.
I am so grateful to be present to your daily inspiration. Thanks for being there.
Merry Christmas to you and your family, Susan!
Thank you for your beautiful gift! I’m a painter but, like so many, am moved and inspired by thought-provoking verbal passages. At times some of them even make it literally into my art. I appreciate your commitment to the rest of us through your daily inspirations. Thank you for that as well.
Susan;
Not only have you inspired me this past year but you have given me great tah dah moments that have been life changing.
Thank you does not seem to be adequate.
Entahs is a phrase of blessings, may it bring to you great love and peace.

Even though Christmas is long past, I’m thrilled that the .pdf is still available. I love the quotations. Very generous of you. Thank you so much.
