A few days ago, I heard someone talk about needing pain to create. I thought that was an old conversation. That we didn't say that anymore.

A to Z challenge day 4 Theme: Notebooks Like I mentioned yesterday in my post C - Collages, younger I wanted to become an artist. I painted and draw a lot. I would spend the evening writing and half the night drawing. I stopped about 20 years ago. I didn't notice it at first. The kids,…

I have been a meditator for quite some time now. 22 years. With the ups and downs that comes with it. Re-evaluating my commitment more often than never.
