When we say, ‘That’s impossible’ we immediately place limits on ourselves. We shut the door to further efforts and exploration. Is it time to toss the “It’s impossible” excuse into the trash?

🌾 Today’s Poem ~ How Do I Love Thee?
How Do I Love Thee?
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, — I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! — and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
🍎 Today’s Health Tip ~ Are You Getting Enough Vitamin B12?
Do you get enough vitamin B12? You’ll want to make sure that you do, in order to stay healthy. . . . Vitamin B12 does a lot of things for your body. It helps make your DNA and your red blood cells, for example. Since your body doesn’t make vitamin B12, you have to get it from animal-based foods or from supplements. And you should do that on a regular basis. You can get vitamin B12 in animal foods, which have it naturally, or from items that have been fortified with it. Animal sources include dairy products, eggs, fish, meat, and poultry. If you’re looking for a food fortified with B12, check the product’s Nutrition Facts label. You can also get vitamin B12 deficiency if you follow a vegan or vegetarian diet. In both of those cases, you can add fortified foods to your diet or take supplements to meet this need.
✒️ Writers’ Wisdom ~ Importance of Characters to Your Story
“Without characters, you don’t have a story. And to take that one step further, without characters the reader will care about, you still don’t have a story. Flat characters are the death of a narrative. That’s why I love Ernest Hemingway’s classic quote: “When writing a novel a writer should create living people; people, not characters.” ~ Josh Sippie
