OK-That was Then.......

OK-that was then.........NOW WHAT?

Yesterday was totally frustrating as I tried to re-establish connections to old art sites. Trying to upload work and getting no where. Wait a minute........that's one of the things I left behind when we traveled to this location. Try, try, try.............trying to hard. Finally I had to shut this off and tell myself........All will be done in His time.

I turned this computer off and took my kitchen compost out to the garden. That is where I love to be....outside no matter what the weather is. I dug my hands into the compost and sprinkled it onto the soil, grabbed my pitchfork and gave a good mixing. Looked up to the heavens and said "OK Lord, let it rain" and so He did. A whole day of it. Ummmmmmmmm Good!

Since coming here to Metter a year ago, it has been very peaceful and quiet. Leaving everything behind to start over. Including most of my finished art pieces. Gaining a fresh perspective, allowing Spirit to speak. Technologies are good when they are applied constructively. I know where I was in the past, I know where I am NOW, and I know where I do not wish to return.

I think posting the artwork is not so much to say "Wow! Look what I can do." but rather to say "What one can do so can another". If the desire is within your heart. We are all Creative. Just as we are all Love. There are a million and one ways to create and be artistic as there are a million and one ways to Love. Painting is simply an outward expression of emotion.

So........What Now? I don't know. I think I best go into Prayer and get enlightened by Him. Later............
