Welcome to Episode 223
\\nIn today\'s episode of Inspirational Shorts we read our final two poems by Gwendolyn Brooks - You can check out some of the other poems that have been written HERE
\\nThe Word for today is Helpful, and think of a time where you gave or needed help and what the outcome was, what nuggets of wisdom did you take away from the experience.
\\nThink about the changes you would like in your own life and the step or steps you would like to take. Take out your art journal and be creative, use colour, texture, whatever you feel inspired to use.
