So I will be taking this month and part of next month off my regular day job to help organize my mother for her radiation treatments and also as per my doctor - to get a little rest.
I have a tendency to set crazy unattainable goals for myself (vist mom hospital daily, spend more time with my son, do my artwork, go out with my husband, call friends, work 50 hours a week day job) and then I crash feeling so dissappointed that I wasn't able to complete everything. Ugh - it seems to be a pattern with me and you would think by this point in my life that I would know this by now - but no - I have to crash to realize I have done it again.
So I have decided to just "breathe". To go back to just doing the things I love and stop trying so hard to make everything happen. I read somewhere recently that sometimes when you can't seem to get an answser to all your questions it's because you are not ready for the answer yet - that seems relevant to me at this time.
I'm going to sit back and just let things happen a little,,, enjoy things, take time, and most importantly - live in the NOW. So easy to say and so hard to do - but I am going to try.
My word by the way for 2012 which I don't think I mentioned is CLARITY. Just clarity - clarity to know clearly and precisely the path I should be following.
So somehow, as with all art, I have been furiously drawing these and I think I know why,
I see these girls as my "fairies",
My fairies that I believe are watching over me ; )
My magical fairies - I love them!
Have a good Tuesday all
