In Flux




Just when you think you're on the right path, Life pulls on the brakes and you find yourself making a U-turn. Or so it seems with me and Life at the moment. The New Year started off on a high note. I was feeling settled, safe and thankful. The previous year was pure chaos with many hills and valleys. I found myself holding my breath and wondering often, "What next?" The road seemed to even out over the holidays and the sun even peaked out from behind the clouds...I thought I spied a silver lining. And maybe I still do. Maybe Life is saying,"Well you tried plan A and it has brought you back to the same place. Why don't you try plan B this time?" Plan B takes a lot of courage though. Plan B involves mango trees, island time and immigration. I'm happy I have my artwork to distract me and my collective members to encourage me. The road is going to be a bit bumpy the next couple of months, but I'm trying to enjoy the ride.

Adjustments

With the changing weather comes many new life changes...I know I'm not the only Collective member starting a new chapter and in that I find comfort...that we can rely on each other to support us through these changing tides. After 4 years of part time freelance work, I have now returned to the 9-5 grind. It has been difficult to get used to the new routine, but I am grateful for this new opportunity. I am still trying to work in a studio practice but I'm confident that it will come with time. Tomorrow is our big trip to Bethlehem to visit the proposed storefront which I'm very excited about. Until soon...peace and wellnes...
