Here’s some word art from a quote by the 19th century French novelist, critic, and activist Emile Zola: “I am here to live out loud.” I think it’s something worth thinking about at the beginning of a new year … or anytime. Am I saying what needs to be said? Am I making a difference? Am I living out loud?

Hi Deb, Happy New Year!
Great questions…
Am I saying what needs to be said?
Am I making a difference?
Am I living out loud?
These are certainly worth contemplating, not only at the beginning of 2011, but on a daily basis.
This word art will be etched in my thoughts as a reminder to Live Out Loud!
