Brave HeArt

I need to make art...
I need to sit at my table and make art... just because it feels good, not because I have to, not for a deadline, but just something from my soul...

I am a at crossroads in my life right now...
A little lost as to what road to take.

only when things become a little unclear do we understand that to grow is to live.
"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness"
WHEN I AM WEAK, I AM STRONG



i love you much(most beautiful darling)

i love you much(most beautiful darling)

more than anyone on the earth and i
like you better than everything in the sky

-sunlight and singing welcome your coming

although winter may be everywhere
with such a silence and such a darkness
noone can quite begin to guess

(except my life)the true time of year-

and if what calls itself a world should have
the luck to hear such singing(or glimpse such
sunlight as will leap higher than high
through gayer than gayest someone's heart at your each

nearness)everyone certainly would(my
most beautiful darling)believe in nothing but love

My poor darlin. I hope whatever is bugging you gets resolved soon.

When I feel I'm at a fork I bust out a notebook and just let it all flow...usually I feel better after that.

sending big hugs and wishes for more glorious spring-like days, and lots of quiet, productive art time.
