That is what I said when the three boys were little, and part of me didn’t want that time to end. I painted pictures with them in between making Halloween costumes and cookies, parties and putting bandaids on knees. We… Being creative in life and art requires balance,inspiration and some down time The reward is transformation of our thoughts, sprits and bodies. Have you found that to be true for you?

Practice is the greatest concept.  I usually don’t make irrevocable plans. I’m actually pretty relaxed about life. Passionate, but a pretty calm, go with the flow type person. But tonight was one of those nights. Have you ever had a series of events that happen rapid fire and you don’t know where to look next? These surprises thwart every effort… show 12 comments

@Liane, She IS lucky…and so are we! In spite of those stressful moments! That’s when I just balance in live in the now moment. After a while things normalize. Then I can get back on track. Anytime, she would love to see you. And of course, Flopsy as well!

Nina - Taking deep breathes, focusing on my inner Self and other stuff just like dat.
bethvw - You are so right, family can provide a grounding when things are not working out the way you planned. I agree with you about nature as well. I remember stopping at the ocean in winter and early in the morning in summer, just to feel the pounding waves and look at the never ending horizon! Nature puts things back in perspective. “Centering” describe what being immersed in nature does does for the body and soul. Thank you for your thoughtful ideas!
asmalltowndad - Other than my family, nature is my inspiration spiritually and creatively. Whether it’s setting on waters edge of a lake or ocean, or in a woods listening to the sounds and it’s visual wonders, it seems to bring me back to earth and calm.
