Sandra has the best food ever! It made me metaphorically drool looking at her food pics!

Syd— I think there is a vast difference between “staging” your life and “living” your life. There is absolutely nothing wrong with taking steps to make your life a little bit happier and I see no problem with the way in which Sandra did this. In fact, I think this is one of the most inspiring dailies simply because Sandra is out, exploring, doing things that she finds to be creative and inspiring to HER.

We’re all inspired in different ways, and we can NOT forget that. My only hope is that we continue to seek inspiration in everything, INCLUDING ‘Dailies’ that you may not like.

And for the record— Sandra is the LAST person who would proclaim “look how my life is perfect.” I just hope you haven’t completely offended her.

Let’s keep the comments constructive, ok?

i agree with Hagerstrom actually. i also find these blogs so weird in a way that they try to showcase a ‘magazine like’ lifestyle where everything is so ‘perfect’. INSPIRATION is everywhere and us artists and designers document it in our own particular way but this is just over the top! it looks fake and highly staged. i do prefer the dailies you make of people who are a bit more ‘real’ and one can relate and be inspired by them. sorry but vulnerablity doesn’t really come into the issue here as it can be seen in the link to her blog. it’s a daily showcase of ‘look how my life is perfect!’
i love your blog by the way.

Hagerstrom—

I understand your point and think that yes, we should probably maintain a certain level of inspiration on our own, but sometimes it’s quite fascinating to become inspired by those around us in an effort to see what motivates them, how they create, etc.

And I’m quite disappointed in the last sentence of your comment, actually. Sandra is a VERY talented artist/designer, and although not everyone needs to agree with me, they do need to respect that Sandra is sharing a level of vulnerability in an attempt to inspire the rest of us and I’m grateful for her contribution. I’m quite sure she’s cream of the crop, regardless of how many people I have e-met.
