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.
